Where and how to buy planken in Moscow
Due to its high consumer properties, beautiful appearance and a wide range of applications, the demand for planken is constantly growing. Therefore, questions related to the purchase of planken in Moscow arise more and more often.
What is the peculiarity of the material?
Planken - a processed, perfectly smooth board with beveled or rounded ends. Completely natural finishing material, safe for health.
Planken benefits
- high noise insulation;
- low thermal conductivity (keeps the temperature in the house);
- increased resistance to changes in humidity and temperature (in comparison with lining, imitation of a bar, block house and other lumber);
- allows to manufacture ventilated facades;
- unique drawing of the finished canvas;
- tactilely pleasant material.
Planken is used for interior wall decoration, as a floor and facade board, for the manufacture of fences, fences, pergolas, gazebos and other elements of landscape design.
Depending on the type of work, boards are chosen from two to six meters in size, with beveled or rounded edges. Planken, as a rule, is a facade material, it is used in conditions of exposure to an aggressive environment, so you should be especially careful when choosing a wood species. Planken from spruce, pine (needles) and larch is presented on the market. The latter is somewhat more expensive, but much more durable both in terms of aesthetics (a beautiful appearance remains for decades with proper care) and the strength of the boards themselves.

Ilya forest
Ilya Les Trade and Production Company (website - https://ilya-les.ru/) has extensive experience in working with wood finishing materials. The peculiarity of the assortment is that all lumber is made from only coniferous trees grown on our own plots.
Ilya Les offers products in bulk from warehouses in the Moscow region north and south of Moscow. Delivery service works. In addition to the sale of lumber, he is engaged in the construction of frame houses and other structures, in which a large amount of lumber is involved. Production (sawing, drying, storage) is located in the Vologda Oblast, the raw materials, respectively, are from the North. The assortment of planken from spruce and pine, no larch.
Timber exchange
Lesobirzha (https://lesobirzha.ru/) is a diversified company. Sale of finishing materials made of wood is one of the activities along with construction, decoration, carpentry and other works. The supplier's warehouses are located in the Moscow and Leningrad regions, delivery works. Assortment - larch, pine needles, cedar, heat-treated materials.
Construction hypermarkets
You can also buy planken in construction hypermarkets. As a rule, the offer is formed for retail buyers: the assortment is not as wide as that of the specialized firms, the remains of the goods do not allow for shipments in large quantities. Sellers do not always have the right amount of information about the features and practical use of materials.
The largest DIY chain retailers include Leroy Merlin and Petrovich. Small batches of planken can be bought directly on the website (Leroy - https://leroymerlin.ru/, Petrovich - https://petrovich.ru/) of these retailers, and you can arrange delivery there. However, judging by the reviews of buyers posted on the stores' websites, the quality of the goods brought often does not meet expectations.
Construction Markets
Another planken sales channel is construction markets. Here you can find attractive prices, but from time to time there are problems with the quality of products. There is no way to find out about the seller's reputation, to get a guarantee backed by real responsibility. Despite the large number of reliable outlets in the markets, the risk of meeting an unscrupulous seller is highest here. We will not consider them, they are objectively impossible to compare.
Aggregators
Aggregators of goods and services such as Yandex Market, Pulse Price, tiu.ru, blizko.ru collect planken offers from various suppliers on their Internet sites. Plus resources - a large selection of suppliers. Minus - the services are not responsible for the quality of the offered products, they do not give guarantees. As a rule, it is difficult to find reviews of real buyers on such sites.
How to buy planken correctly
Study the sorting norms, selectively inspect boards from the ordered batch.
We recommend buying planken from reputable suppliers. It is not difficult to check reviews of famous stores on the Internet. Another indicator of reliability is the age of the company. Experienced sellers will not risk their name for financial gain, or engage in re-grading. Employees of highly specialized firms, as a rule, have a deeper knowledge of the topic and will be able to provide quality advice on the selection of board grade, calculation of the number of panels and other issues.
To avoid cheating when buying materials, we recommend reading these reviews, and you can also google the request "How to avoid cheating when buying lumber." A good article on this topic was found on the website of the Evrovolinka ru company.

It is objectively impossible to compare prices from other sellers. For those considered, the grade of sawn timber is more or less clear and the same, a large assortment. It is best to compare prices for the lowest grade and the highest. Usually there are 4-5 varieties in the assortment. In the assortment of Leroy, for example, there are only 2 varieties - prima and optima. What this really means is unknown, so there is no point in discussing here from the price. To buy planken in Leroy, you have to go to the store itself, independently determine the grade, and then compare prices.
As we wrote earlier, larch is the most optimal option for planken, so we compared prices for larch. But if you look at pine, then the cheapest option is pine / spruce, and here you can already see the Ilya Les company. They can give a good price due to their own complete procurement and production cycle.
For larch, the best price is in the Prima-les (Evrovolinka ru) and RealWood companies. Both companies look decent.
