Variations of Beech Wood

Beech wood is highly regarded for its consistent texture and warm color, making it suitable for a wide range of cabinetry styles. The wood’s natural strength and ability to resist shock make it an excellent choice for durable and long-lasting cabinets.

European Steamed Beech

European Steamed Beech features a relatively straight and even appearance, though it may contain chevron patterned grain. The steaming process results in a consistent color, ranging from tan to reddish-brown, similar to Alder but with small flecks in the grain.

Plain Sliced European Beech

Plain Sliced European Beech has an even color and grain structure with a reduced allowance for natural defects like knots. Some mineral streaks may be visible, and the material will still possess the characteristic "fleck" seen in European Steamed Beech.

Beech wood cabinets provide a combination of beauty and resilience, with variations such as European Steamed Beech and Plain Sliced European Beech. Each type offers unique characteristics and a consistent appearance, making beech an ideal choice for any cabinetry project.
