What is Mango Fruit Wood ?
What is mango fruit wood ???This is a question we get asked very often .Mango fruit wood is a sustainable tropical hardwood timber and yes it is the same as the fruit we eat .If you've been up to Q.L.D ,the Gold Coast you would have seen very large Mango trees ..think back., yes it is the same wood .
We use it because it has a beautiful grain ,it is hard ,it can be stained almost any colour ,
Our signature finish in our stores is in Mango Fruit wood ,you can't achieve the subtle colour with any other hardwood http://ecohabits.net/mango-wood-sustainable/#sthash.gDZcz86r.dpbs
