Rubber wood is wood from the ParĂ¡ 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.Therefore, the Malaysian governmnet had taken the initiative and it was sucessful with the initial export of rubber wood as sawn timber products ( mainly furniture components ).
Rubber Wood from a valueless timeber 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) ,woodfibre cement-bonded particleboard, plywood and other products.
