RINOWOOD™
Rinowood™—a Landmark
brand—is an extraordinary hardwood tree
found in abundance throughout Central and South
America. Although it has been imported into the
United States for over 50 years in the use primarily
for marinas and boardwalks, it has mostly flown
under the radar in the home consumer market. That
is until now. Today, it is the fastest growing
choice of hardwoods for decks, docks, and piers
in the United States.
Remarkable for its tight grains
and high natural oil content, Rinowood holds the
distinction of being the densest commercially
sold wood in the world today. Rinowood naturally
resists deterioration due to rot, decay, insect
infestation, salts, and caustic chemicals—in
fact, we offer a 25 year warranty because of this.
It is five times harder than cedar, 70% stiffer
than hard maple, and carries a fire rating similar
to concrete and steel. As the wood naturally weathers,
it takes on light silvery gray tones unless an
oil or sealer is used to preserve its dark, rich
natural colors.
Note: all of Landmark's natural
woods are sourced using sustainable forestry practices
monitored by local governments, the U.S. Government,
and third party non-governmental organizations
with the sanctity of good forestry practices in
mind, and where positive social labor laws are
enforced.
