Species Description
Palo Rosa flooring is a bold and beautful wood that sports a red to yellowish heartwood that can be streaked with brown or purple. Palo Rosa hardwood is also known as flamewood, due to its orange and yellow intertwining tones. Found primarily in Brazil and parts of Argentina, Palo Rosa, like many South American species of wood, benefits from great durability and substantial hardness. A wood that is often used for decorative veneers and fine furniture, a Palo Rosa floor makes a distinctive and gorgeous addition to any space.

Grading
Clear grade, also commonly called Select & Better, is the highest grade available in flooring items. No open defects are allowed and material is 100% heartwood. No breaks, no splits, no cracks. In tropical flooring, tight knots and burls are typically downgraded from Clear to Select or #1 Common grade.
General Information
Unfinished flooring is installed and then sanded and finished on site. For new residential construction, solid unfinished flooring is the preferred choice. Material can be stained and then finished with the customer's choice of gloss level: satin, semi-gloss or high-gloss. Material can also be re-sanded and re-finished many times over offering the customer a floor which will last generations.
