Oak Wood – by Limra Timbers

Enduring Strength | Refined Grain | Crafted for Generations

Oak Wood (Quercus spp.) is a legendary hardwood known for its high strength, fine grain, and timeless aesthetic appeal. With excellent resistance to wear and a rich texture that enhances with age, Oak is a preferred choice for flooring, luxury furniture, cabinetry, and architectural detailing.

At Limra Timbers, we supply high-quality, imported White Oak (Quercus alba / European Oak) and Red Oak (Quercus rubra) in seasoned and precision-cut form. Our oak wood is carefully sourced, dimensionally stable, and tailored for both traditional and contemporary applications—ideal for premium interiors, long-term installations, and export-based manufacturing.

Key Features:

  • Janka Hardness:
    • White Oak – ~1,360 lbf (durable and impact-resistant)
    • Red Oak – ~1,290 lbf (hard and resilient)
  • Density (Seasoned): ~700–770 kg/m³ – strong yet workable hardwood
  • Color & Appearance:
    • White Oak – Pale tan to golden brown
    • Red Oak – Warm reddish-brown with a pronounced grain
  • Grain & Texture: Prominent straight or interlocked grain; medium to coarse texture
  • Durability: Naturally resistant to moisture, insects, and decay
  • Sustainability: Responsibly harvested from regulated forests; available with certification upon request
