Rubberwood is wood from the Pará rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis), often called the rubber tree.
Rubberwood is used in high-end furniture as it is valued for its dense grain, attractive colour
minimal shrinkage, and acceptance of different finishes.
It is also prized as an "environmentally friendly" wood, as it makes use of trees that have been cut down
at the end of their latex-producing cycle.

Rubberwood is one of the more durable hardwood lumbers used in the manufacturing of home furnishings
of this decade. A member of the Euphorbiaceae family, rubberwood has a dense grain character that is
easily controlled in the kiln drying process.

Rubberwood has very little shrinkage making it one of
the more stable construction materials available for furniture manufacturing.

Rrubberwood is the most ecologically "friendly" lumber used in today's furniture industry.
Unlike other woods that are cut down for the sole purpose of producing furniture, rubberwood
is used only after it completes its latex producing cycle and dies. This wood is therefore eco-friendly
in the sense that we are now using what was going as waste.

Rubberwood is strong, flexible, resistant to fungus, bacteria and mold. It's compatible with most
industrial adhesives, easy to work with and has a beautiful grain suitable for quality furniture.
