Frequently Asked Questions About European White Ash Logs
Q: How does European White Ash compare to American White Ash?
A: European White Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) and American White Ash (Fraxinus americana) have similar properties, but European Ash tends to be slightly denser and harder. Both are prized for their strength and flexibility.
Q: Is European White Ash suitable for outdoor use?
A: While European White Ash has moderate resistance to decay, it’s not typically recommended for exterior use without proper treatment. For outdoor applications, consider using a preservative treatment or choose a naturally durable wood species.
Q: How does the current ash dieback disease affect the availability of European White Ash?
A: Ash dieback has impacted ash populations across Europe. However, our logs are sourced from carefully managed forests where healthy trees are selected, ensuring the quality and sustainability of our products. We work closely with forestry experts to monitor the situation and adjust our practices accordingly.
