General Uses Top

Suggest a correction!

Common products:
Sawn timber; sliced and rotary-cut veneer; furniture and joinery lumber; flooring; cabinetry stock; interior moldings and trim.

Industrial and craft applications:
Primary use is as a high-grade decorative hardwood in furniture, cabinetry, fine joinery, and sliced-veneer panels. Also employed in flooring, interior moldings, paneling, and similar interior joinery where a stable, attractive timber is required.

Food and beverages (non-medicinal):
No documented non-medicinal food or beverage uses.

Colorants and tanning:
No documented colorant or tannin uses.

Wood and fiber:
Heartwood is used for furniture and cabinetry, flooring, veneer, and interior joinery. Wood is valued for its fine, even texture, attractive figure on quarter-sawn surfaces, and good dimensional stability for interior applications. Good nail-holding properties.

Fragrance and cosmetics:
No documented fragrance or cosmetic uses.

Properties relevant to use:
Sapwood is susceptible to insect attack; heartwood has good decay resistance and is rated as highly resistant to dry-wood termites. Wood dust can cause allergic reactions; recommended dust control and appropriate PPE in machining and sanding.

Standards and regulation:
Internationally listed in CITES Appendix II, requiring export permits and annotations. National timber and trade rules apply; species identification verification is common due to confusion with similar high-value timbers (e.g., ties to Mansonia altissima, properly in the genus Mansonia).

Sustainability and sourcing:
Limited to moderate availability from natural forests in parts of its Southeast Asian range. Selective harvesting and import controls under CITES emphasize verification of species and legal sourcing; grown-planting initiatives exist in parts of Southeast Asia to supplement supply.
