- Beech is a dense and hard wood, from a slightly pinkish to yellow shade. The board made of this type of wood has a large selection of natural patterns.
- Teak – for the most part has yellow shades, almost does not give in to deformation and is not afraid of water.
- Oak is a good option for houses and apartments, which is affordable and has various shades from light brown to pale yellow.
- Bamboo is a very durable and beautiful material, but it has a high cost, since the process of processing it is quite laborious. But this is compensated by the fact that the board made of this wood looks original and is suitable for the implementation of any design solutions.
- Ash – has a high hardness and strength, therefore it is suitable for rooms where there is a high degree of load.
