Finland is one of the most important forest industry centers in the world.  The slow growing, durable spruce and pine timber is known for its high quality.  The   close-grained and straight Finnish wood is beautiful and durable, preserving its appearance and characteristics for decades. Finnish sawn timber is particularly suitable for furniture, interior decoration, paneling, doors and windows. 

Russian timber is famous for its high density and quality. Rather severe climatic conditions in Russia causes quite slow wood growth that leads to the narrow-ringed structure of timber. According to the European standards the annual ring growth for the high quality coniferous timber should not exceed 4mm. Russian timber in general has annual ring growth about 1,1-3mm.
