WHITE OAK

1. Brief introduction

White oak is a variety of oak tree native to North America. It is highly valued for its toughness, water and air tightness, aesthetic appeal, unique flavor, and the strict forest management practices in the United States. White oak is widely used in furniture, exterior applications, flooring, wine tanks, and building materials.

North American white oak wood holds various high-value environmental certifications. Hardwood forests, particularly white oak and red oak, are strictly managed and inspected by timber cultivation and inspection agencies in the United States to ensure sustainable development.

Other names: Stave Oak, Quercus alba

2. Identification characteristics

The sapwood of white oak ranges in color from grayish white to slightly brownish, while the heartwood is from light brown to dark brown. The color distinction between these two sections is not as pronounced as in red oak.

White oak has a longer wood grain, making it easily recognizable.

The texture of white oak is moderate to rough.

3. Application

White oak is commonly used in furniture, decoration, and floor coverings.

Due to its excellent waterproof properties, white oak is also utilized for kitchen cabinets, exterior applications, doors, shipbuilding, wine barrels, and general storage tanks.

It is suitable for construction joints such as glue-laminated structures and is commonly used in building walls, stairs, ceilings, and more.
