Paulownia glulam board in 2000 mm x 1200 mm x 18 mm

Paulownia, also known as “Emperor tree” or “Kiri”, is a tree species characterized by its fast growth and its light but robust wood. Therefore, the wood can be used in the following areas:

1. FurniturePaulownia wood is lightweight and is therefore ideal for making furniture, especially furniture that needs to be easy to move. Due to its durability and dimensional stability, it is also used for interior fittings, e.g. for windows and doors.
2. Music instrumentsDue to its excellent acoustic properties, Paulownia wood is used for musical instruments such as guitars and lutes. Its lightness and resonance provide a rich and full sound.
3. ConstructionPaulownia wood is used in lightweight construction, e.g. for frame constructions, gazebos and pergolas. Its low density and ease of processing make it a popular building material.
4. Aviation and automotiveIn the aviation, aerospace and automotive industries, Paulownia wood is used for lightweight and durable components such as vehicle interiors and model airplane structures.
5. Renewable energiesPaulownia wood is also used as biomass for energy production. The tree's rapid growth makes it an ideal renewable energy source.
6. PackagingDue to its lightness and strength, Paulownia wood is often used for crates and packaging that need to be stable yet easy to handle.
7. Arts and handicraftsPaulownia wood is valued by craftsmen and artists for its easy workability and smooth texture, making it an ideal material for the production of sculptures, decorations and other artistic objects.

Paulownia wood is therefore not only versatile, but also very environmentally friendly due to its rapid growth and high carbon dioxide absorption capacity. The tree's rapid growth makes it a renewable resource that can be used in many different industries, thus contributing to sustainability.
