Wood is a natural material, very durable and more resistant to damage than other wood-based materials or plastics, and most importantly, wood does not threaten our environment. In addition, wood is a flexible material, which means that it can better absorb loads and impacts without cracking.The mechanical properties of wood include tensile and compressive strength (measured in the axial and transverse directions), shear, splitting, hardness, static bending and impact (impact bending and strength), so wood products can serve us for many years. The natural nature of wood makes products made from this raw material beneficial to our health. The smell of wood derived from resins, essential oils
and tannins, has a positive effect on human well-being. Scientists argue that, depending on the species, wood can stimulate, relax, lower blood pressure and have an antibacterial effect.
