The Woods
Rubberwood
Rubberwood, also known as Hevea Brasiliensis, originates from the rubber tree, primarily grown in Southeast Asia.
It is a sustainable material, often harvested after the tree's latex production cycle ends.
Rubberwood has a fine, even texture and a light pale cream or yellowish-brown color, making it an ideal base for staining and finishing.
Its durability and affordability make it popular for furniture especially tables, and small wooden items.
About Rubberwood
Density & Hardness
Rubberwood has a moderate density, with a specific gravity ranging from 0.55 to 0.65. Its hardness is rated at about 980 lbf on the Janka scale, making it relatively soft compared to hardwoods but still durable for furniture use. The wood's manageable density and hardness make it easy to machine, sand, and finish.
Water resistance
Rubberwood has low natural water resistance, making it prone to swelling and warping when exposed to moisture. It is susceptible to fungal attacks if not properly treated. To address these issues, we apply multiple layers of shellac and lacquer, creating a durable barrier against water and humidity.
Advantages
Rubberwood is an affordable and sustainable choice for table manufacturing, offering an eco-friendly alternative to other hardwoods. Its light color and even texture make it easy to stain or finish, allowing for a variety of styles.

Kembang Semangkok (KSK)
Kembang Semangkok wood, derived from the Scaphium species found in Southeast Asia, is known for its medium to coarse texture.
The wood typically features a warm brown to reddish-brown hue, often with subtle natural patterns that add character.
Valued for its strength and stability, it is widely used in furniture making, and decorative interior applications.
About KSK
Density & Hardness
Kembang Semangkok wood has a medium density, typically with a specific gravity of 0.60 to 0.70. Its hardness is moderate, providing good resistance to wear while still being workable with standard tools. This balance of density and hardness makes it suitable for structural furniture.
Water resistance
KSK wood offers moderate water resistance but can still absorb moisture over time, leading to potential deformation. Its porous structure requires additional protection in high-humidity environments. By adding layers of shellac and lacquer, we enhance its water resistance and preserve its integrity.
Advantages
KSK wood’s warm brown tones and natural patterns add a rustic charm to tables, making it an excellent choice for both modern and traditional designs. Its medium density provides a sturdy surface for daily use without being overly heavy. The wood's stability minimizes warping, ensuring long-lasting quality for dining or work tables.

Nyatoh
Nyatoh wood, sourced from tropical regions of Southeast Asia, is appreciated for its smooth texture and rich, warm tones ranging from pinkish-red to dark brown.
It is moderately hard and easy to work with, making it a favorite for cabinetry, doors, and general furniture.
Its natural resistance to decay further enhances its suitability for indoor use in humid climates.
About Nyatoh
Density & Hardness
Nyatoh wood has a higher density, with a specific gravity of 0.65 to 0.75, giving it a solid and substantial feel. Its Janka hardness is approximately 1,200–1,400 lbf, making it harder than Rubberwood and KSK wood. This density and hardness provide excellent durability, ideal for cabinetry and interior woodwork.
Water resistance
Nyatoh wood has slightly better natural water resistance than Rubberwood and KSK wood, but it is still not ideal for prolonged exposure to moisture. Without treatment, it can develop surface blemishes or degrade in damp conditions. Our application of shellac and lacquer seals the wood, ensuring a polished finish and long-lasting protection against water damage.
Advantages
Nyatoh wood’s rich reddish hues and fine grain create elegant and visually striking tables. Its hardness and density provide exceptional durability, making it ideal for heavy-use surfaces. The natural resistance to decay adds to its longevity, ensuring a table that can withstand time and usage.
