Lyptus Hardwood Products
Beautiful. Exotic. Eco-Aware.
Which hardwood products offer great quality, remarkable beauty, and environmental attributes? Lyptus® hardwood products, made from fast-growing eucalyptus, deliver all these characteristics and more. These eco-sensitive products from Brazil are known for their workability, machining properties, density, finish ability, overall strength, and exotic appeal. Available in a variety of grades of lumber, plywood, and veneer, Lyptus is an ideal hardwood for cabinetry, millwork, furniture, and flooring.
The eucalyptus trees are grown on plantations certified to Brazil's national sustainable forestry standard, CERFLOR. This standard has been recognized by the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC), an international organization that endorses credible sustainable forestry programs.
Eucalyptus trees grow quickly and can be harvested within 14 to 16 years of planting. Because these plantation trees are manually pruned during their growing years, logs coming into the mill are more uniform and have fewer knots. This in turn results in a high conversion rate of logs to clear lumber. Like our mills in the United States, our Brazil mill uses virtually every portion of the log, converting it not only into lumber and by-products, but also using the residuals as bio-energy to fuel the mill.
