Solid Basswood is the #1 choice of wood in the shutter industries. 
It'slightweight but strong, sturdy, and stable. It is also well suited 
to paint, stained, and natural finishes. While joint wood is a composite 
material lumber made of recycled wood fibers from recovered saw dust, peanut
shells, bamboo, straw, and waste products such as high-density polyethylene 
and PVC. Additives like colorants, stablelizers, reinforcing agents and 
lubricants are also used which tends to deform in hot weather.
