Applications & Uses
Frequently Asked Questions — Mango Wood
Is mango wood sustainable?
Yes. Mango trees are replanted commercially for fruit production, and timber is harvested from trees that have passed their fruit-bearing life. This makes mango wood one of the most sustainable hardwood choices available.
What is the price of mango wood per CFT?
Mango wood is one of the most cost-effective hardwoods. Contact RK Wood Industries at +91 94144 69669 for current pricing. Bulk discounts are available for furniture manufacturers and export houses.
Can mango wood be used for outdoor furniture?
Mango wood is not naturally weather-resistant like Teak or Acacia. For outdoor use, we recommend our pressure impregnation anti-termite and weather-resistant treatment for extended durability.
Why is mango wood popular for export furniture?
Mango wood offers an attractive price-to-quality ratio, unique spalted grain patterns, excellent stainability, and sustainability credentials. These make it highly popular in European and American markets for industrial-style and bohemian furniture.
What finishes work best on mango wood?
Mango wood takes oil finishes, wax, lacquer, and paint exceptionally well. Its slightly porous grain creates beautiful patina effects. We recommend clear lacquer or Danish oil for showcasing the natural grain.
