It comes in shades ranging from ivory and gold to a darker honey brown. The boards can be blended to create unique tones or classified according to their hues, making your designs unique and exclusive.

About the Wood
Despite being a very dense wood, it features a medium to fine texture with natural thermal neutrality that keeps it pleasing to the touch, making it incomparably smoother than softwood, composite, or modified materials.

It’s a superb choice for indoor and outdoor flooring applications, particularly effective in extremely humid, hot, or cold conditions.
