WORKTOPS AND BAR TOPS
Workbench tops usually have the ingrate mission to bear up considerable wear and tear. Indeed, any hardwood worktop worth its salt will do so without cupping, chipping, twisting, or cracking.
Made primarily of beech wood, our worktops, garage tops, and the industrial workbenches are available in 1.5”, 2” and 3” thickness.
Beechwood is a perfect candidate for this kind of job since it wears well and stays smooth when subjected to repeated friction.
That’s why beech wood floorings are such a familiar presence in factories and other high-traffic areas.
With hardness scaled at 1300 on the Janka scale (comparable to the white oak in this regard), high elasticity and remarkable shock-resistance, this guy sure can take a beating without complaining.
Unlike the kitchen tops, the beechwood garage workbenches display a few color variations, so the overall appearance is slightly rustic.
Dark and reddish streaks alternate with the creamy background hue.
All our worktops and woodworking benches come finished with marine-grade teak oil unless you specifically want them unfinished or treated with some other type of wood finishing of your choice.
Unlike other oil finishes, the teakwood oil protects a pretty wide range of harsh chemicals that the worktop might happen to come in contact.
