Species Description
Cumaru Hardwood flooring, commonly called Brazilian Chestnut, is a tough and dense wood imported from Brazil that has an irregular, somewhat interlocked grain and wavy - course texture. Cumaru flooring typically has a lot of color variation in its natural state. Cumaru flooring is the perfect choice for a hardwood floor because of its density, Cumaru floors in solid or engineered formats are very resistant to termites and decay. Cumaru's heartwood is a medium brown with distinctive tan shades that compliment one another in with tonal warmth to create a relaxing feeling that's great to come home to. Cumaru flooring is a popular choice for homeowners and decorators looking for more of a brown-toned floor. Our Cumaru flooring is sustainably harvested from regions such as Peru, Bolivia, and Brazil. The wood's Janka hardness is rated as 3,200, making a Cumaru floor approximately 270% harder than a Red Oak floor.
