Kiln Dried Torrefied Poplar
Torrefied Poplar—also known as thermally modified poplar—is poplar that has been heat-treated to enhance stability, durability, and color. The torrefaction process transforms poplar’s pale tones into warm brown and chocolate brown hues while reducing moisture absorption and movement.
Torrefied Poplar turns smoothly with sharp tools, producing clean cuts and good detail. The thermal modification improves dimensional stability, making it less prone to warping or cracking than untreated poplar. Its fine, even grain sands easily and finishes well, creating a refined, consistent appearance.
Common uses include turning blanks, bowls, spindles, decorative turnings, and utility projects.
Please note: Kiln-dried woods may vary in thickness by up to 1/4", but will usually be only 1/8" undersized due to surfacing.
Kiln-dried to below 10% moisture content.
End grain is sealed in wax to help limit moisture changes.
Protective wax seal guaranteed for 30 days.
Guaranteed defect-free unless otherwise noted in the listing.
All orders fulfilled within two business days.
Shipments fully insured against loss and damage.
Images of turned items are AI-generated illustrations of how the wood may look when turned and finished.
