Merbau is revered for its attractive growth ring figure and deep color. It is a unique lumber whose characteristics display a natural beauty.
Merbau is highly resistant to termite and other beetles due to a high mineral, oil and silica content. The wood's physical characteristics exceed those of Mahogany by sixty percent. These are the convincing characteristics which qualify the wood the be an ideal choice for the fabrication of exterior components such as windows, doors, shutters, columns, trellises, beams, outriggers, gazebos and porticos.
The hardness and the fiber structure of the wood enables a level of outstanding finishing. Accomplished through repeated hand-sanding and a finishing technique reminiscent of a traditional French Lacquer finish, Luxbaum Windows + Doors delivers durable beauty. |
