A New Generation of Hardwood

Hard wood flooring, furniture and accents are often the first choice for homes and commercial applications due to the durability, beauty and long life of hard wood products. However, demand for exotic hard wood has led to a host of problems, from illegal and irresponsible harvesting to deforestation of the world's tropical rainforests and old growth forests.

But what if you could have the beauty of hard wood, without the harmful effects on the global environment?

Alowood, produced from plantation-grown timber, now offers an ideal alternative to traditional hard woods. It's sustainable, cost-effective and applicable to every use presently assigned to hard woods.

Alowood is the future of hard wood.

Save the world’s old growth and tropical forests and stop illegal harvesting

Alowood is made from fast growing sustainable plantation lumber crops and is available as a certified sustainable material by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC).

Enhanced Hardness and Stability

Alowood can be made to the same hardness specifications as Oak, Maple or even harder species. Stability is better than many natural hardwoods.

Color penetration and consistency

Alowood is colored throughout the board. While natural hardwood color can vary from tree to tree, Alowood colors are very consistant. Alowood is available in many colors to give you a look similar to ebony, walnut, oak or more.
