Using coconut wood for furniture and construction actually save our forest. As exotic timber becomes scarce, and the lumber forest are cut by the million hectare per year, price of wood has risen with the decreasing supply and increasing demand for modern furniture.
Coconut timber for furniture construction is most suitable, since only senile coconut are cut and these senile coconut trees are no longer productive and posed immediate danger as it decays away.
Routine cutting is needed in coconut farms, and these timber are used for construction and furniture making.
Please do your part, by supporting the Coconut Movement.
