Durapalm FAQs
What is Durapalm made from?
Durapalm products are crafted from renewable palm wood, specifically harvested from species like Palmyra and Coconut palms. Sourced as an agricultural byproduct, Durapalm lumber, panels, plywood, veneer, and flooring offer sustainable building materials with unique textures and rich, natural tones.
Where can Durapalm products be used?
Durapalm products are versatile and designed for various applications, including wall and ceiling panels, flooring, cabinetry, cladding, and custom furniture. Suitable for both residential and commercial spaces, Durapalm can be used indoors and outdoors, depending on the product type.
How durable is Durapalm palm wood?
Durapalm palm wood is highly durable, with a natural resilience that makes it ideal for high-traffic and exterior applications. Palm wood’s density and unique structure contribute to its long-lasting performance, especially when used as cladding or flooring.
Is Durapalm flooring easy to install?
Yes, Durapalm flooring is designed for easy installation with a click-lock system that reduces setup time and effort. This system, combined with a high-quality, scratch-resistant finish, makes Durapalm flooring a practical choice for builders, homeowners, and commercial designers alike.
What makes Durapalm sustainable?
Durapalm is a sustainable choice because it is sourced from palm trees that have reached the end of their productive lifespan. Harvesting palm wood from these agricultural byproducts prevents deforestation of old-growth forests, creating an eco-friendly building material option for environmentally conscious projects.
Can Durapalm be used outdoors?
Yes, certain Durapalm products are specifically designed for outdoor applications. While some products, such as wall panels, flooring, and veneers, are intended for indoor use, Durapalm’s Palmshell™ cladding and solid palm lumber are engineered to withstand outdoor conditions. These materials are highly durable and weather-resistant, making them ideal for exterior cladding, façades, and other outdoor designs.
