Cumaru Floors
Cumaru is a popular exotic hardwood and is also known as “Brazilian Chestnut.” Given its extreme density, Cumaru can be used in residential and commercial installations. It also has impressive structural stability that is prized for making furniture and carvings. It tends to shrink when freshly cut and can take a while to dry, but once dried, it demonstrates firmness. It is also naturally resistant to decay and insect attacks. The wood is also durable for use in outdoor settings as it can withstand elements with its weather resistance properties.
