Muiracatiara, also known as tigerwood, is a stunning hardwood species renowned for its distinct appearance and impressive durability. This wood features a warm, light orange-brown color, accentuated by rich, dark brown veins that create a striking striped pattern, similar to a tiger’s markings, giving it its popular name. Not only is Muiracatiara highly sought after for its unique aesthetics, but it is also exceptionally durable and strong, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
Tigerwood’s high density and natural resistance to decay, moisture, and insect damage make it an excellent choice for areas subject to wear and tear, such as decking, flooring, and furniture. Additionally, the wood's hardness allows it to maintain its beautiful appearance even in high-traffic areas, providing long-lasting beauty and function.
