What is Maple Wood?

Maple wood is strong, beautiful, and easy to stain, and it has many advantages. It is a favourite among woodworkers and  exotic wood dealers in India because of its luminous, milky hue, uniform grain, and exceptional toughness. Despite there being other types of maple trees in the world, Hard Maple is the variety that American woodworkers use the most frequently (aka Sugar Maple or Rock Maple).

The northern hemisphere’s temperate regions are where the maple tree is found. The family of maples, which includes more than 200 different species, is naturally present in Germany. In parks and gardens, beside roadways, or both, maple trees often grow alone or in small clusters. The sycamore tree is the one with the most forests out of the three.

According to the best  exotic wood dealers in India, there are three categories of maple, which are also widely distributed in North America: sugar maple, hard maple, and sycamore maple. Quilt maple, burnt wood, birdseye maple, and flame maple are a few particularly gorgeous varieties of the maple tree. Heartwood and sapwood have a similar color and texture, ranging from white to yellowish-white. Quite shortly, it starts to turn yellow.

Workability

Both hand and machine tools can be used to work with soft maple rather easily, but due to the higher density of hard maple, it can be more challenging.

Sustainability

Maple trees absorb carbon from the atmosphere, making maple wood sustainable. Maple furniture also acts as a long-term carbon sink. Burning wood waste also generates energy, taking the place of fossil fuel. The best  maple wood suppliers said that it is possible to gather the timber without hurting the trees because of its abundance.
