Wood Properties:
Jatoba wood is extremely hard, scoring 2350 on the Janka Hardness Scale. That makes Jatoba hardwood almost twice as hard as strong, resilient red oak, which is the benchmark against which all other wood species are compared for relative hardness. Jatoba's hardness translates into excellent durability when it comes to resisting scratches, dents and wear patterns from foot traffic.
In addition to durability, Jatoba hardwood is sought mostly for its incomparable beauty.
When freshly cut, the heartwood ranges in color from salmon red to orange brown. Seasoned by age, Jatoba hardwood eventually darkens to a deeper russet red that is often marked with dark brown streaks. An overall golden luster adds a layer of depth that makes Jatoba hardwood dramatic, breathtaking and a premium natural flooring product.

Features:
Of the many cultural riches Brazil possesses, it boasts the greatest collection of plants found anywhere on the planet. Its Jatoba hardwood tree, in particular, stands out as one of the best known exotic species. Considered the ultimate in luxurious flooring, Jatoba hardwood flooring is highly prized for its dramatic blood-orange color. Most homeowners have never heard of Jatoba wood, but are very familiar with the exotic hardwood known as Brazilian cherry. Surprisingly, they are one and the same!
Jatoba’s qualities of exceptional hardness and density, combined with its beautiful color, make it a perfect wood for flooring. Since Jatoba hardwood resembled domestic cherry hardwood, the name “Brazilian cherry” was adopted for the flooring market.
