Wooden Furniture

The popularity of wooden furniture endures because it’s practical, long lasting and can be beautifully carved and crafted. Clearly, no other material offers so much. But if the closest you come to woodworking is sharpening a pencil, how can you be sure of what you’re buying?

The majority of the wooden furniture sold on Pineonline is either Pine as our name indicates or Rubberwood.

Pine

We source our Pine beds, bedroom furniture and Table and Chair sets from Brazil, South Africa, Malaysia and various European countries including Denmark & Sweden. Each of these countries grows their Pine in sustainable forests. We source only from the best factories producing the finest quality products.

Rubberwood

Rubberwood is the wood of choice of Malaysia producers. Again this wood is from a sustainable source.

Rubberwood is often the most misunderstood species of wood in the furniture industry. The name rubberwood invokes a variety of misconceptions as to it's features and to it's durability. Rubberwood (also called Parawood in Thailand) is the standard common name for the timber of Hevea brasiliensis.

In fact, rubberwood is one of the more durable timbers used in the manufacturing of today's home furnishings. As a member of the maple 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.

Like maple, rubberwood is a sap producing species. In the case of maple, it is sap; in the case of rubberwood, it is latex. Rubberwood produces all the latex used in the world for all rubber based products.

There is one more important feature of rubberwood that is very important in today's world. Rubberwood is the most ecologically 'friendly' timber used in today's furniture industry. After the economic life of the rubber tree, which is generally 26-30 years, the latex yields become extremely low and the planters then fell the rubber trees and plant new ones. So, unlike other woods that are cut down for the sole purpose of producing furniture, rubberwood is used only after it completes it's latex producing cycle and dies. This wood is therefore eco-friendly in the sense that we are now using what was going as waste.
