European Hornbeam (Carpinus betulus)

Other names: hornbeam, habrzettl

Harm score: 1 (Natural substances)


Hornbeam (Carpinus betulus), also known as hornbeam or hornbeam, is a tree that is naturally distributed throughout Europe. This evergreen, hardy and truly prevailing tree, which grows to a height of 15-20 metres, is smaller in size but in no way different in terms of its resilience and ability to survive in different conditions. This tree is a member of the birch family and is a popular species of lumber, which stands out for its toughness and invincibility, despite its relatively small size.

Thanks to these characteristics, the Hornbeam is used in various manufacturing industries. Its wood is extremely hard and flexible, which makes it ideal for making various tools such as paddles, shovels or various grooves and tracks. Hornbeam is also often used for furniture, where its strength and resistance to damage are a real asset. Hornbeam is also popular for the manufacture of wooden toys as it is hard, tough and does not warp. However, the use of hornbeam is not limited to industrial production. This tree is also planted in parks and gardens for its decorative value, as its dense and compact foliage creates great shade and can create cosy and peaceful corners. The Hornbeam is therefore not only an industrially valuable material but also a popular plant in the landscape.
