Entandrophragma cylindricum
Sapelli Window Scantlings
Our laminated Sapelli window scantlings are a premium solution for the industrial production of wooden windows and doors, ideal for applications requiring structural reliability, stability and superior aesthetic performance.
Sapelli is an African wood characterized by a medium-fine texture and a regularly interlocked grain, giving the material an elegant appearance and good visual uniformity. The scantlings are manufactured using carefully selected, dried and bonded lamellas according to strict quality standards, ensuring production continuity and consistent technical performance over time.
Thanks to its average density of 690 kg/m³, low movement tendency and naturally good durability, Sapelli offers an excellent balance between strength and workability. Its higher mechanical resistance compared to softwoods makes it particularly suitable for medium-high-end windows and frames, ensuring dimensional stability, machining precision and greater structural reliability.
An ideal choice for those seeking quality, performance and aesthetic value, without compromising the efficiency of industrial processes.

Advantages of our profiles
Greater dimensional stability
The glued lamella structure helps compensate for the natural tensions of wood, ensuring excellent dimensional stability.
Ready for immediate use
The material is supplied planed to size and can be used directly in production machinery.
Greater productivity
Dimensions and quantities can be adapted to the customer’s specific requirements, reducing waste, financial stock immobilization and the risk of material deterioration.
Simplified budget planning
Our scantlings allow manufacturers to calculate quantities, material costs and processing times with greater accuracy.
