Welcome to Beautiful Woodforest Products
Beautiful Woodforest Products, LLC is centered in Dallas Texas, and we're on our way to becoming a top distributor of Teak, Tectona Grandis, and Mountain Cypress, Cypressus Lusitanica. Working closely with the mills and importers allows us to ensure the quality of the lumber we distribute. It also allows the ability to assure our buyers, contractors, and customers that these fine woods are indeed plantation grown, and a resource that is being renewed. As we grow, we find that we are being offered the opportunity to distribute other wood products such as, plywood, framing lumber, door jams, etc. Contact us with your needs. We may have just the lumber you're in the market for.
Tectona Grandis, Teak, is considered by mariners to be the world’s most valuable and versatile hardwood. It has endured for hundreds of years (600 years before the time of Christ) as the first lumber of choice in shipbuilding. Why? Teak is specified for external uses because it is one of the only woods that can withstand the harsh challenges of the seawater, broiling sun and does not split, splinter, crack, swell or warp.
Imagine having the beauty and benefits of a teak yacht deck in your living room, recreation room, dining room or kitchen. Why not? Beautiful Woodforest Products makes it available at a price that competes with oak. Our teak flooring is made from certified renewable sustainable plantation wood. It is professionally dried solid teak wood machined to the highest industry standards, tongue and grooved, end-matched, and micro-beveled edge.
Beautiful Woodforest Products customer/installers have increased their profits by eliminating callbacks due to warping, cupping, and twisted flooring components. In summary, our teak wood product line has earned a spot in the marketplace by solving problems.
Cupressus Lusitanica, Mountain Cypress, Mexican Cypress is found in high elevations throughout the tropical world. From the sound of the name, you could get the impression that this grand tree grows in all of Mexico, when in fact it grows only in the southern-most tip of Mexico, where the climate is more tropical. Two of the lesser names that this lumber is known as are Cedar of Goa, Portugal Cedar. Christopher J. Earle has determined that Cypressus Lustanica and Cedar of Goa, or Portugal Cedar, are one in the same. http://www.conifers.org/cu/cup/lusitanica.htm
Mountain Cypress, or Cedar of Goa, is raised successfully in plantation settings, typically along mountain slopes throughout Central and South America. Cypress can reach heights in excess of 100 feet, and have diameters of two to three feet. Nevertheless, they grow very slowly, due mainly to the tendency to grow in cold, tropical climates along steep slopes.
Mountain Cypress, or Mexican Cypress is a medium density species. It has a density of .43, which is similar to the commonly traded wood of Spanish Cedar. The Species Poplar is a US reference which is similar in density, elasticity and impact strength to Cypressus Lusitanica.
One of the best uses for cypress is in exterior, stain grade, fencing. Mountain Cypress excels in this category due to its unique amber color, which fades gradually into pewter over time. Plus, its natural insect and weather resistant properties render installation and maintenance much less expensive than pine fencing. Other than waxing the exposed end grain, no special treatment or sealants are necessary for exterior preservation.
