Modern Vanity Double Sink Made from Durable Solid Rubberwood.
Rubberwood is wood from the Pará rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis), often
called the rubber tree.
Rubberwood 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.
Rubberwood is one of the more durable hardwood lumbers used in the manufacturing
of home furnishings
of this decade. A member of the Euphorbiaceae family, rubberwood has a dense
grain character that is
easily controlled in the kiln drying process.
Rubberwood has very little shrinkage making it one of
the more stable construction materials available for furniture manufacturing.
Rrubberwood is the most ecologically "friendly" lumber used in today's furniture
industry.
Unlike other woods that are cut down for the sole purpose of producing
furniture, rubberwood
is used only after it completes its latex producing cycle and dies. This wood is
therefore eco-friendly
in the sense that we are now using what was going as waste.
Rubberwood is strong, flexible, resistant to fungus, bacteria and mold. It's
compatible with most
industrial adhesives, easy to work with and has a beautiful grain suitable for
quality furniture.
