Technology
Just because we’re 50 years old, doesn’t mean we don’t have the latest technology.
Our manufacturing is as beautiful as our wood.
The world’s best architectural and design firms trust us with their biggest and most important projects, because they know we’re engineered right.
Our 500-plus employees, many third-generation artisans, export to nearly 30 countries, because the world has discovered our beauty.
Their technical knowledge and experience – from the forest through the lab and the loading dock – are constantly improving to make sure clients experience our total expertise across the process.
Wood is the product we sell, but our expertise extends into three key areas:
- Ethics
- Sustainability
- Technology
Every square foot of our wood is transformed from the moment it leaves our plantations under the watchful cooperation and technical support of the prestigious ESALQ School of Agriculture in Piracicaba, Brazil.
We do not accept any raw material that does not carry the forest management certification issued by the Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Resources. Seventeen kilns are used in the drying process of the lumber. This eliminates any type of insect or fungus existing in the timber by submitting the lumber through extreme temperatures and lumber conditioning for 10 days.
Architects and builders should know we’re not just eco-friendly, we’re family friendly as well, as we are a family business and have been for more than four generations.
