Pine

At Elephant Timber, we are proud to offer a wide variety of high-quality pine planks for sale. Known for its affordability and versatility, pine is a popular choice for DIY enthusiasts, carpenters and professional woodworkers. Whether you are building furniture, crafting shelves, or creating other wooden projects, pine can be the perfect material for the job.

Pine is a softwood that comes from coniferous trees, often found in forests across the UK. It has a pale yellow to light brown colour with distinctive grain patterns, which can vary depending on the specific variety of pine used. The wood’s texture is generally straight and uniform, although it can sometimes have knots, which add character and rustic charm to the wood.

One of the standout features of pine is that it is relatively light weight, making it easy to work with, especially for larger projects. It is also known for its open grain, which gives it a warm, inviting appearance. Pine’s natural resin content also means it holds finishes well, allowing you to create a range of looks from natural finishes to painted designs.

Pine is incredibly versatile, and it can be used for a wide range of applications. Some of the most popular uses for pine include:

• Furniture – pine is often used in the creation of furniture such as tables, chairs and cabinets. Its lightweight nature and ease of handling make it an excellent choice for both traditional and contemporary furniture designs.
• Shelving and storage – due to its strength and flexibility, pine is a great choice for shelving, bookcases and other storage solutions. It can be easily cut to size and stained or painted to match the decor of any room.
• Flooring and panelling – pine is often used for creating flooring or panelling, particularly in rustic or country-style homes. It adds a natural, welcoming atmosphere while being durable enough for daily wear and tear.
• DIY projects – for DIY enthusiasts, pine is a go to material due to its affordability and ease of work. It is perfect for creating everything from picture frames to small wooden accessories and home decor items.

Customer Projects

There are several reasons why pine is a top choice for woodworkers. Here are just a few of the advantages of using pine in your projects:

• Affordability – one of the most appealing aspects of pine is its cost-effectiveness. Compared to hardwoods like oak or walnut, pine is much more budget-friendly, making it ideal for larger projects or when you are working on a tight budget.
• Ease of use – pine is relatively soft and easy to cut, sand and shape. This makes it perfect for those who are new to woodworking, as well as for experienced craftsmen who need a material that is quick to work with.
• Durability – while pine is a softwood, it is still a durable option for many uses. It can handle everyday wear and tear, and with proper care and finishing, it can last for many years.
• Sustainability – pine is a renewable resource, and when sourced responsibly, it is an eco-friendly choice. At Elephant Timber, we make sure we only supply sustainably sourced pine, so you can feel confident in your environmental impact.
