WOOD
LEGNO
Lapalma primarily selects European oak, ash and Canaletto walnut certified according
to the main Chain of Custody control standards (FSC). Sliced logs are directly
inspected at our cutters’ yards: the process of selecting and choosing the best pieces
is entrusted to the experience of our employees, who then process individual sheets
to obtain semi-finished products for Lapalma’s end products.
At Lapalma, all the stages involved in the processing of wood products combine
complex industrial technology with craftsmanship and experience. The outcome is a
natural product that is controlled yet never identical, a natural wood type.
We use only matt open-pore acrylic varnishes to protect our wood finishes. They make
products resistant while preventing any changes in the naturalness and aesthetic
variety of this living material. Lots may therefore vary in colour and grain. This is not
to be considered the result of faulty production but a value-added feature and a
guarantee of the naturalness of our products.
