Rubberwood has very little tendency to warp or crack, as well as a dense grain character. Another advantage is that it is earth friendly. Unlike other trees used for lumber, rubberwood is not harvested until it can no longer be used for its latex-producing sap; and then when it is harvested, new gum trees are put up. It's a great option for stains or rubber paint. Often considered an economy grade paint, we recommend a good primer be used before painting rubberwood. This is because rubberwood is porous in nature.
