American Maple MP09 — 1290x185x55mm

American Maple (Acer saccharum)

American Hard Maple — also known as Sugar Maple — is one of North America's most prized hardwoods. Its pale cream to light golden-brown tones, fine and even grain, and exceptional hardness make it a benchmark timber for furniture, flooring, worktops, and any application where a clean, consistent, hard-wearing surface is required. It is a timber of real quality and versatility, equally at home in contemporary and traditional settings.

It works well with sharp tools, takes a superb finish, and responds beautifully to both clear and stained finishes. A reliable, premium temperate hardwood for the most demanding projects.
