Black Walnut

Super Prime

As further evidence of its commitment to offering customers the very best, Brooks Bros has ‘partnered’ with Florian Legno to supply their 100% FSC® Super Prime American Black Walnut (FSC® Plantation Juglans Nigra) into the UK.

Ripped after steaming and kilning to enhance the quality and shape and improve the yield.

Black Walnut – Super Prime

So, why Super Prime Black Walnut?

The Super Prime Black Walnut forests of Eastern Europe have been plantation grown ensuring adequate spacing between trees to produce wider straighter logs, which have then been managed, thinned and pruned (removing the lower branches) to reduce the number and size of knots in the log.

What our customers say about Brooks Bros Super Prime FSC® Black Walnut

Whilst the initial m3 cost is not cheap, the outstanding quality and much improved yield in the manufacturing process makes it very good value for money and I can rest assured that the finished product will delight my customers. It also matches the Walnut veneered sheet materials very nicely, which is most important to us.
