At KitchenWorks, our work involves more than creating spectacular new kitchens. It also includes seeking out and utilizing environmentally responsible materials and establishing earth-friendly procedures whenever possible.
That's why we were the first company in the Bay Area to introduce new Lyptus hardwood as an option for updating your kitchen cabinets. It is beautiful as it is durable with a unique wood grain pattern and density that makes it as hard as maple. Lyptus is a hybrid of Eucalyptus grandis and Eucalyptus urophylla and is grown in managed forests in Brazil. Each forest is planted on land that was once used for agricultural purposes and barren of trees. The Lyptus trees grow interspersed with other trees indigenous to the region to help preserve the area's native ecosystem and increase biodiversity.
Due to the warm climate in Brazil, Lyptus trees grow quickly—enabling forest management professionals to harvest trees in 15 years versus the 50 to 70 years required in colder regions. And Lyptus trees can be regenerated after being harvested, without the need for replanting or disturbing the forest floor.
