     Why are Rubberwood ( HEVEA-WOOD )
    Environmentally friendly?

Rubber wood perishes easily when discarded therefore helping to protect the environment. It only takes 25 – 30 years to grow an impressive 75 feet or more over their lifetime. Rubberwood plantations are plentiful and aren’t restricted for logging. Other timbers are felled solely for producing furniture. Rubberwood is used only after the tree completes its latex-producing cycle and dies. Rubberwood is strong, flexible, resistant to fungus, bacteria and mould. Plantation rubber trees give our wooden to the natural beauty of wood patterns, while leaving unharmed natural forests.

Technical Info

Rubber wood is wood from the Pará rubber tree (Hevea-Brasiliensis), often called the rubber tree. Rubber wood, also called parawood in Thailand, 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. The older practice was to burn the "useless" tree. It is one of the more durable hardwood lumbers used in the manufacturing of home furnishings of this decade. Rubber Wood from a valueless timber almost fifteen years ago, is now one of the major resource for making furniture for export and for the production of the panel products such as particleboards ( MDF) ,wood fibre cement-bonded particleboard, plywood and other products.
