Rubber Wood

Starting mid 1980s rubber wood emerges as an alternative resource for timber industry and other wood based products and now has become one of the most popular for this industry.

Rubber Wood is a light-colored medium-density tropical hardwood obtained from the Pará rubber tree. Rubber Wood is commonly advertised as an “environmentally friendly” wood, as it makes use of plantation trees that have already served a useful function.

Overview

Rubber wood has a dense grain that is easily controlled in the kiln drying process. Rubber wood has very little shrinkage making it one of the more stable construction materials available for furniture, toys and kitchen accessories. It is easily worked, and takes on stains uniformly. As with all hardwoods, rubber wood comes in varying degrees of quality.

Rubber wood is a real hardwood being moderately hard, having medium texture and similar density and weight as maple or ash.

Application

Rubber wood is widely used for many purposes ranging from tables and chairs, wardrobes, beds to countertops in kitchen, living room or office. Rubber wood is also often the main material for carpentry workshops and furniture factories.
Rubber wood is durable, strong, tough and resilient. If well-cared for, it should last for 20 years or more. It is easy to take care of being more stain resistant than its natural counterpart. Rubber wood is burn-resistant, particularly if the heat source is a cigarette butt. Besides, it is non-toxic and won’t release toxic fumes into the air when there’s a fire.

Workability

Easy to work with both hand and machine tools. Rubber Wood tends to warp and twist in drying, though it is fairly stable in service once seasoned. Glues, stains, and finishes well.
