CHERRY

Product catalog summary

Wood Description: The sapwood of Cherry is whitish pink and impregnable, while the heartwood is reddish brown to red with a straight, fine grain. It is moderately impregnable.

Technological Characteristics: Cherry wood has an apparent density of 560 kg/m³ at 12% humidity, making it semi-heavy. It has a volumetric contraction coefficient of 0.38%, indicating stability, but a contraction ratio of 1.92%, suggesting a tendency to deform. The wood is semi-hard with a hardness of 3.2 (Chalais-Meudon), resistance to static bending of 850 kg/cm², an elasticity modulus of 103,000 kg/cm², and resistance to parallel compression of 490 kg/cm².

Processing and Applications: Cherry wood is easy to saw and dry, though there is a risk of warping. Planing and other operations pose no problems, but gluing can be problematic with acid glues at high temperatures. Nailing and screwing are easy to average, and finishing is easy. It is used for indoor wood flooring, furniture, fine woodwork, and decorative plates.

Product Formats: Available formats for gluing or nailing include dimensions of 400/1600 x 90, 100, 110, 120, or 140 x 19 mm, and for nailing, 500/2400 x 90, 100, 110, 120, or 140 x 19 mm, and 500/2400 x 120 to 140 x 21 mm.

Quality and Standards: The flooring is manufactured to meet various standards, including AITIM quality seal, UNE-EN ISO 9001:2015, and several UNE standards related to wood flooring and coating. The varnished solid wood flooring contains 8 layers of coating, including 5 layers of UV-drying acrylic and water-based primers and 3 anti-scratch coats.
