Courbaril, also known as Jatoba, is a durable premium hardwood sourced from tropical highland forests in South and Central America. The heartwood ranges from orange-red to deep reddish-brown with rich, darker streaks. When finished, Jatoba develops a natural lustre, making it highly suitable for façades, flooring and bespoke timber applications.

Forestlines – Innovation in Timber Cladding

Forestlines introduces a revolutionary circular façade system that elevates untreated FSC-certified timber to an unprecedented performance level. Through scientific innovations such as micro-compartmentation and advanced heat conduction, untreated wood achieves a fire reaction class B, a unique achievement within the industry. This performance is the result of years of research and extensive fire testing.

The system offers architectural flexibility, allowing personalisation in wood species and board width while minimising cutting waste and optimising dimensional stability. Even lesser-known timber species can be successfully applied thanks to this engineered approach.

Awarded fourteen international design and innovation prizes, including the Red Dot Award and the German Design Award, Forestlines is globally recognised for its impact. The system provides fast installation, concealed fixing, competitive pricing and a scratch-resistant coating. Developed in close collaboration with craftsmen and architects, Forestlines products are manufactured in-house using high-quality materials to ensure consistent top-level performance.
