Wood Essences
The selection of a wood essence for wood joinery is made according to several criteria:
- Geographical area (sea / mountain) to meet temperature and humidity requirements. For colder areas, with significant differences in temperature and humidity, the best option is Pine and Spruce, and for those areas with excessive humidity and heat, the best option is Meranti
- Interior and exterior style / design of the house
- Every customer's preference for wood fiber
- Budget accessibility. Regarding this aspect, Spruce and Pine are the most accessible and ecological essences, followed by Meranti essences, the most expensive essence being that of Oak
LUCA uses in the production of wood joinery the following wood essences: Pine, Spruce, Meranti and Oak. Upon request, we can produce joinery products of any essence selected by the customer, if it is adapted to the requested product.
Wood essences are divided into two categories: (1) Softwood – soft essences and (2) Hardwood – hard essences:

Stain / RAL staining
Milesi and Rimmers stain, a semi-transparent water-based solution that enhances the wood fiber, highlights the characteristics of each essence and reacts differently. There are available solutions that mark the pores and are suitable for oak essence, but not for softwood, which has no pores.
In addition to coloring, the stain has certain effects on the wood: it highlights the design and texture of the wood, evens out the natural color, hides defects and protects the wood.
Premium ecological paint from the same supplier Milesi or Rimmers is used to create the opaque coloring of the joinery. It covers the wood and it creates a film, with different degrees of gloss and elasticity, after drying. The paint protects the wood against external factors and rot, in addition to the aesthetic role of coloring. The color shade is chosen from the valid universal RAL palette.
