Douglas Fir

Douglas-fir has a long-standing reputation for its distinctive natural attributes, including strength and beauty. It is commonly used for building and construction purposes due to its extraordinary strength-to-weight ratio and availability in large dimensions. In India it has found a market in solid doors and door frames, furniture and general millwork and is highly recommended in post and beam construction.

Douglas-fir is also used to produce a wide variety of products including general millwork, flooring, furniture, cabinets and veneer.
