Millworks Grade A/B

This grade offers an excellent balance of quality and practicality.
Similar to BS 1186-3 Class 1/Class 2.

The ease of installation makes it a top choice for designers and homeowners seeking to create inviting interiors where Douglas Firs organic appearance creates a timeless, natural aesthetic.
Douglas Fir is a versatile and durable material that enhances the beauty and functionality of interior ceilings.
