The Excellent Properties Of Hemlock And Its Application In Our Products

Hemlock is widely used in various joinery products due to its unique physical and mechanical properties. Its excellent properties, including its easy processing and painting, as well as its high strength and excellent dimensional stability, make it an ideal choice for doors, windows and escalators. Whether it is a home staircase, an industrial telescopic ladder, a wooden line, a shutter door and window cabinet, a kitchen door, or even a decorative front door, hemlock can do the job perfectly.

The stable corrosion resistance and compression resistance of hemlock make it not easy to be eaten by insects, and it is light and not easy to deform, making it an ideal building material in ancient buildings. In addition, hemlock also shows excellent compressive wrist rigidity and excellent seismic resistance. Hemlock also has excellent chemical treatment and can be treated with preservatives and fire retardants. Therefore, hemlock is the preferred tree species in occasions where high strength and high density wood are required.

Hemlock wood is fine and dense, with moderate hardness, high bending strength and natural anti-corrosion ability. As it dries, it holds its shape and hardens, becoming dimensionally stable with a low tendency to crack. Its smooth surface is resin-free, so it absorbs paint and stains well.

As a premium wood, hemlock’s hard texture, stable physical properties, and excellent durability make it an ideal choice for furniture, construction, and decoration. Whether it’s delicate carvings, load-bearing structures, or everyday decoration needs, hemlock can meet them, making it the material of choice for many craftsmen and designers. WIDEWAY’s Highline Retreat swing set is made of 100% FSC high-quality hemlock from sustainably managed forests, mainly because the wood does not splinter, has strong natural weather resistance and is therefore resistant to wood rot, and the wood is treated with a water-based dye, which requires almost no maintenance. This natural dye (without chemicals) is environmentally friendly and child-safe, making it the perfect choice for children’s swings.
