The color of sapwood is yellowish-white to reddish-white, core wood is reddish-brown to dark reddish-brown. Siberian Larch is one of the most valuable and durable species among coniferous wood species. Its spent resin repels water as a natural impregnation and protects wood against fungal attack. Siberian Larch is harder than European because of its slow growth in cold regions. Larch is sensitive to iron. It is possible to locate from rust, to use fasteners made of stainless steel only.

Wood density: ca. 650 kg / m 3. Kiln-dried: 16-18%

Finishing and color
If you choose Siberian larch wood on a facade treated with paint, to save the wood against getting of a gray patina, which will show without treatment on wood for approx. 1 year after exposure to weather, application of OSMO COLOR natural oils and waxes is highly recommended. If you want to get a transparent color, you can buy OSMO UV Protective Oil Transparent Extra 420. If you're going to protect the wood and preserve a natural look, the right option is the application of a lightly pigmented coating in the specified shade. We recommend using OSMO UV Protective Oil color Extra (6 colors). Alternately if necessary for color rendering with a higher degree of pigmentation but the ever-rescuing texture and wood grain OSMO Protective oil glazing. (18 color shades).
