What is FAS Grade
FASÂ Grade stands for first and second grade, which is the highest standard for hardwood quality, ensuring the wood is strong, durable, and nearly flawless. To meet this grade, at least 83% of each board’s surface must be free of knots, cracks, or other defects, and the boards are typically 6 inches wide and 8 feet long or larger. This means the wood is not only visually clean but also structurally strong, with minimal waste during production. Products like this sofa frame, crafted with FAS-grade wood, are built to last and highlight the natural elegance and durability of premium materials.
