About Merbau Wood Flooring

Merbau is a medium brown coloured wood with reddish/orange highlights with a course graining. Many pieces exhibit yellow "flecking" in the pores. Merbau comes in a fairly wide range of colour variability, from light browns to medium browns to dark browns. Many pieces will have a yellow dust in the pores which show up as gold "flecking" when finished. Merbau undergoes a medium to large degree of colour change, with the muting of the colour variation from when fresh milled and with darkening over time to deeper orangey brown colour.

Merbau is a popular timber for joinery applications in Europe particularly in Belgium and The Netherlands. The timber is mainly derived from a single species, Intsia palembanica. Its grain and growth ring figure together with its dark red-brown colour gives it a very attractive appearance which is suitable for high class joinery including door and window frames and facades. The timber is also used for interior paneling, strip, parquet flooring and other decorative uses. Like other sawntimber species available from Malaysia, it is readily available to buyers worldwide through well established shipping facilities.

It has good strength properties, comparable to that of European Beech and better than Oak and many other joinery timbers. Of even more significance is its durability which is rated as good and therefore the timber is well suited for exterior joinery and other applications where it is exposed to the weather. This species also has good wood working properties giving smooth machined surfaces. It takes finishes readily and is also easy to glue. It has very low shrinkage when drying and the seasoned timber is very stable in service, an important requirement for joinery timber.

We also stock products from many of Europe's leading manufacturers such as Kahrs, Junckers, Boen and Quickstep. If you are interested in a product from any of our manufacturers then call us on 08700 116 914 as we are able to supply all of their products.
