Fagus sylvatica L.
Steamed Beech Solid Wood Panels
Steamed beech full stave panels are made from Fagus sylvatica L. and intended for structural and furnishing applications where precision, compactness and aesthetic uniformity are required. The steaming process gives the wood a more homogeneous tone and an improved visual appearance, while maintaining the high mechanical performance typical of beech.
We produce solid wood panels by gluing together selected full-length staves of variable width, in order to obtain solid wood full stave panels with continuous grain and a uniform surface. This configuration makes it possible to create a solid, stable full stave panel suitable for high-quality workmanship.
Despite the high shrinkage and internal tension typical of this wood species, careful control of the production process and moisture content allows us to obtain reliable and workable solid wood full stave panels, also suitable for CNC machining and customised finishes.

Advantages of our panels
Dimensional
stability
Glued laminated structure made with carefully dried, selected and planed staves to ensure maximum stability for their intended use.
Ready
to use
Material supplied calibrated and cut to size, ready to be used in machining processes such as milling, or ideal for finishing directly with oiling, lacquering or varnishing.
Cost
certainty
Dimensions and quantities are adapted to the customer’s needs, minimising waste and allowing accurate calculation of material costs and processing times.
Reliable packaging
Each panel is individually shrink-wrapped to prevent damage and deformation caused by changes in humidity.
