Species Description
Tigerwood flooring is a highly distinctive exotic wood with vibrant reddish-brown tones and prominent black striping that varies in thickness from fine strokes to thick stripes. Tigerwood has interlocked grain that is wavy and irregular, complementing the dynamic appearance of a Tigerwood floor. Tigerwood is ranked among the more durable hardwoods with a Janka hardness rating of 2160, making Tigerwood flooring visually striking and a floor that lasts. Interior decorators often look to Tigerwood flooring to bring a bold accent to a room. Tigerwood is also a popular choice of decking material because of its inherent durability and resistance to inclemant weather decay, which bodes well for Tigerwood floors that don't see nearly the level the elemental wear and tear of an exterior deck.
