The Crafstmanship and wood working

The raw material of all Legnoart products is hardwood. Legnoart only select the best “heartwood”, that is, the inner part – or “heart” – of the trunk. This selection translates into quality and durability.

The drying/seasoning phase continues until the raw material reaches an inner humidity value by 10%. This process is crucial to give solidity and robustness to the product.

The seasoned planks are cut in their prescribed length with knots removed, and then undergo “thermal wood processing” in state of the art machines: this is a high-tech technique whereby wood is brought to a temperature between 180°C and 230°C to change its chemical and mechanical properties – resulting in a new product with ever darker overtones and increased dimensional stability, and becomes water, climate and parasite-resistant.

Once selected and hand-picked, the profile of hardwood panels and planks are milled, drilled and joined, and later used as components for the traditional manufacturing phase of our products.

The finishing phase, a true art which brings out the beauty of wood, is performed only with organic plant and mineral substances, such as oil, wax and natural resins. Legnoart finishing is visually “open-pore”, to bring out the structure of wood and to display the pores where sap used to flow.
