Betis wood is a sustainable building material obtained from the wood of the Betis tree, also known as Betula pendula. This tree species, also known as silver birch or sand birch, is native to Europe. Betis wood is characterized by its strength, durability and aesthetic beauty. It is often used for various construction and craft projects, including furniture making, flooring, cladding and even in the shipbuilding industry. Due to its natural origin and sustainability, Betis wood is a popular choice for environmentally conscious builders and designers looking for high-quality materials with a minimal environmental footprint.
The oil extracted from the seeds is pressed for lighting purposes, while the bark and leaves are used medicinally.
