Predestined for the
construction and for
the furniture
If we compare the mechanical characteristics of the usual materials, wood, contrary to the successful ideas, is very successful.
The Resistance, the thoughtlessness and the flexibility allow it to be adapted well to the construction, to the organization, to the furniture, to the packaging and to many other jobs.
With a coefficient of thermal conductivity of 0,15 W / m2°C (against 230 W / m2°C for the aluminium), the wood is unmistakably one of the most insulating materials. A natural quality which he owes to his alveolar structure. Besides, associated with the other materials, we can realize good sound insulations.
Easy to work, that it is only used or associated with the other elements to form composite materials, the wood facilitates a bigger speed of execution of the works.
Paper industries and numerous panels, packaging, civil engineering, building, furnishing are the sectors which use the wood and know how to value its assets.
