Wenge wood is shiny and has rich oiliness. It’s texture is straight, strong and fine-grained as well as having high intensity, high shrinkage and good bending ability, thus makes it very stability, away from worm-eaten and corrosion.
Being one member of the Class I Redwoods, Wenge has a “V” pattern on the flat-sawn face of the heart wood used by high-end consumer groups. It has very fine and irregular wood grain with purple and brown wavy strips which makes a deep-colored and unique texture.
Wenge wood has natural fragrance that is refreshing. It’s tough and waterproof feature makes it an natural advantage for being flooring material.
