Millwork

Hardwoods: For store fixtures that will be subjected to frequent handling or will be holding heavy products, retailers often use hardwoods such as oak, maple, and cherry due to their durability and resistance to wear and tear.

Softwoods:  Such as pine and spruce are generally less expensive and easier to work with than hardwoods. However, they are also less dense and more porous, making them less durable and potentially unsuitable for use in high-traffic areas or for holding heavy products.

MDF: Or medium-density fiberboard, is a composite material made by mixing wood fibers with resin and pressing them under high pressure. Retailers often use it for store fixtures because it is relatively inexpensive, easy to work with, and can be painted or finished to match the desired appearance.

Particleboard: Is a composite material similar to MDF but made from smaller wood particles mixed with glue and pressed together. It is generally less expensive than MDF and often used for less visible or structural components of store fixtures.

Plywood: Plywood is a popular choice for store fixtures because it is a type of wood panel made from thin layers of wood veneer glued together with the grain of each layer running in a different direction. It is strong, stable, and easy to work with.
