Softwood
Softwood comes from milled conifer trees in general that have needle-shaped leaves. They are not classified as soft because their wood is soft; rather they are classified by the type of leaves they produce. IdaPac offers a wide variety of softwood materials great for building. Inquire today.
Hardwood
Hardwood comes from trees that do not produce needles or cones, which are deciduous trees. Rather, trees that produce hardwood also produce leaves and seeds. Common hardwoods include walnut, mahogany, cherry, oak, and maple. Check out our specialty wood products today!
Engineered Wood
Engineered wood is basically wood products that have been treated or reinforced to last longer. The most common treatment for engineered wood is to be water-resistant, which helps to extend the life of your flooring. Check out IdaPac’s wide selection of engineered wood today.
Other Sources of Wood
There are other plants that yield wood, too. Shrubs and bushes yield wood, too, albeit very tiny amounts of it. Still, many people love to build and woodwork using these smaller wood types because they are a bit easier to work with.
