Wood based products (especially building sector) are desired homogeneous as much as possible. Juvenile wood
which occurs at first years of trees growth (approximately 5-20 years) may impair this homogeneous. Because
juvenile wood show too different in mature wood, which comprise of after juvenile wood (more than 20 years)
and have higher strength properties. It’s significant to determine juvenile wood tissue of trees which used forest
product industrial in Turkey like pines, elm, alder, and beech owing to the poorer mechanical properties than
mature wood. Therefore, unexpected result may appear on wood materials that manufactured in natural juvenile
forest or plantation. In this paper is interpreted by study to studies compared physical, chemical, mechanical
properties of juvenile and mature wood. Thus it is indicated that technologic properties of wood based materials
are affected by tree age as scientific.
