Lapland’s red-hearted pine has grown slowly into tight-grained wood in northern Finland; experts value this pine worthy of hardwood. Over the years, the red-hearted pine does not weather like pine that has grown quickly in lush areas, but reddens beautifully, as its name suggests. The slow growth rate and the large proportion of heartwood causes this effect. Even in extreme conditions, red-hearted pine cracks considerably less than an ordinary log. Moreover, the sagging of timber, which happens in log cabins over the years, is of minor effect in red-hearted pine compared to ordinary log. That is why it is a unique and a truly lasting building material. ![]() |
