Reclaimed End Grain

Butternut is referred to as a soft hardwood. It’s part of the walnut family, with a rich, warm buttery tan color. It grows throughout the Midwestern and Northeastern United States, most common in Ohio. The end grain is the most durable way to use this softer wood species. All of our Butternut blocks are cut from reclaimed logs, but not FSC certified.

Chestnut is a hardwood, which grows in North America. It is part of the oak and beech family. At this time we offer only

Our reclaimed Elm comes to us from Canada. This hardwood ranges in color from light brown to dark brown. Elm has soft contrasting tight growth rings.

Douglas Fir (softwood) is a popular choice for End-Grain Block Flooring. Fir Blocks are produced from lumber grown on the west coast, from Oregon and Washington. This specie is known for its warm, subtle appearance. Fir takes stain extremely well, in fact, manipulating the color of a Fir block floor is quite common. Our blocks are cut from slow growing, very large trees. Fir blocks are available as individual blocks installed one block at a time, as well as in strips with a wire system for ease of installation.

Hickory is a very stiff, dense and strong hardwood. Hickory grows in abundance in the Eastern United States and parts of Canada. This hardwood ranges in color from white to tan and has significant color change from one season growth to the next. At this time we only offer reclaimed Hickory blocks produced from lumber sourced from Pennsylvania and Ohio.

Oak (hardwood) blocks are manufactured from Red and White Oak grown in the Tennessee and Kentucky region. When used for commercial or residential projects, new growth Oak must be small, because the stock from which they are cut from is furniture grade and dried to 10% or less. Oak has become a popular choice, because of the medullary rays than emanate from the pith, making it visually pleasing. Reclaimed Oak blocks can be sourced in larger face sizes.
