Douglas fir/larch lumber boasts tight, straight grain that's light brown in colour with a hint of red.
Strong and easily adaptable, this lumber is one of the best building materials available on the market today. Valued for its dimensional stability and high specific gravity, this species variety offers superior fastener holding, along with a high strength to weight ratio. Douglas fir/larch has the highest Modulus of Elasticity (MOE) value of all North American tree species.
Tolko operates three Douglas fir mills and three Douglas fir/larch mills.
Building with Douglas fir/larch
These qualities make Douglas fir/larch ideal for dimension and framing products, as well as engineered structural products (MSR, finger-joint, glue-laminated). Oils and varnishes bring its bold colour to life, making this species a great choice for high-grade products featuring the natural look of wood grain.
