Paulownia has a fine grain structure and a smooth surface, without blemishes (knots). Paulownia is water resistant, is exceptionally stable, and does not warp, break or deforms.

A feature of Paulownia is its ease of working and low weight, elasticity and strength, making Paulownia the preferred choice of timber in various industries such as shipbuilding, aviation, furniture, kitchen cabinets, surfboards, motorhomes, caravans etc...

We offer a cut to sizes service.

Paulownia timber density of around 260 kg/m3 varies between the different species and local conditions, but all of them formed extremely light strong timber.

 
The correlation strength-weight in comparison with other timber species is high. The low weight, elasticity and a modulus of rupture provides it with distinct advantages in certain applications. 

The shrinkage co-efficient of paulownia is very low in volume, giving dried Paulownia wood a high level of dimensional stability.

Paulownia wood used for out of ground uses should be treated with at least two coats of water repellent sealant.

Paulownia is highly resistant to attacks from termites, insects, pests and rot and is found to be ideal for use in areas where these are a problem.
