What is Merbau?

Merbau grows in South-East Asia, Australia. Its’ heartwood is light-brown, it develops into a deeper red-brown when aged. The sapwood* is pale yellow, white or buff coloured.

Most Merbau has an interlocked grain. When sealed with a clear coat, or lightly stained, Merbau has a distinct and attractive appearance.

Merbau is coarse in texture and also contains mineral deposits which give it character.

Kwila wood is recognized as a universal choice for projects, whether indoors or outdoors, regardless of scale. This wood is notably affordable among hardwoods. Merbau lumber is ideal for painting or oiling.
