It has its origin in Southeast Asia, specifically Chinese, it is also known as the Empress tree.

In Japan it is commonly known as kiri, reaches 15 feet in height in its first year, this type of development is more typical of a plant than a tree.

This fact has a positive impact on our planet, since it greatly helps to combat climate change for carbon projects which nowadays it’s something very valuable for a nature based solution.

A full growth paulownia tree captures 10 times more CO2 than the rest of the tree species thanks to its rapid growth.

On the other hand, the Paulownia tree has the reputation of being a miraculous tree because it purifies the soil where it anchors its roots and it is capable of sprouting up to seven times once it has been cut.

The paulownia tree is resistant to pests and diseases due to low oil content and resins. It’s leaves are big they can reach up to 35-40 cm. They are also rich in nitrogen and can be used as an alternative cattle fodder for feeding.

WHAT IS PAULOWNIA WOOD?

Paulownia wood or kiri wood has a light color with pink reflections and does not have knots and its main characteristic is its lightness, reaching an average density of around at 280 Kg / m3.

Apart from this, thanks to its porosity, Paulownia has great attributes such as its thermal and acoustic insulator. It is also a wood very resistant to humidity and putrefaction, and thanks to its easy handling, it’s a material that users find to be very versatile and easy to handle. Besides this we can also assure that this type of wood also allows users to apply any type of stain, varnish, color.

What is BioChar?

What is BioChar

Biochar can be made from organic biomass. What is biomass? Biomass is every where: grass clippings, timber waste, trees with beetle infestation, crop waste, vegetable scraps, cardboard, paper, manure and even dead animals. After all we are just talking about durable carbon that remains in the soil for very long periods of time.

Biochar and charcoal may look alike but the difference is how they are used. Charcoal is used as a fuel and biochar is used in the soil as a valuable soil amendment. It holds nutrients in the soil preventing them from washing away from storms.

How is biochar made from organic biomass?

Organic biomass is heated to a high temperature absent of oxygen, in doing so a chemical process occurs and moisture is driven out of the material and dried out, what is left is a very light black material that under a microscope looks like a honeycomb.

Biochar For Climate Change

Biochar is a tool for linked to bioenergy production can be carbon negative and restore infertile soil to help reduce climate change.

By enriching the soil we remove and sequester excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into the soil.

Biochar Resources

BioChar on Paulownia Tree Farms

Our paulownia tree plantations that are utilized in carbon project managment for the the creation of carbon credits for the voluntary and compliance carbon markets utilize the biochar as a soil amendment to grow healthy paulownia trees.

As you see how the use of biochar supports a 360 degree circular economy. Utilizing our paulownia forest waste, the limbs from the tops of the trees, the off cuts from our paulownia lumber operations and saw dust are used as biochar biomass to feed our trees the nutrients they need and support healthy soils for all of our agricultural operations.

These values are strength and stiffness in bending… so if you are going to compare them, compare them to other values derived from bending. In the wood industry they refer to these as “modulus of elasticity” (bending stiffness) and “modulus of rupture” (bending strength).
As it is extremely resistant (against breakage, compression, high temperatures), Paulownia wood is often used in major as well as finishing works, such as for housing framework, plywood, etc. ​

Paulownia wood has a variety of uses, the species is naturally fire resistant and its insulating properties make Paulownia wood ideal for use in construction work, for building housing framework, hardwood floors, furniture and even ceilings.

Thanks to its limited absorption of moisture and its resistance to atmospheric agents, Paulownia wood can be used in the production of surfboards, skis, snowboards, saunas, but also in shipbuilding (sailing boats) and aeronautics.

Its light weight, flexibility, insulating and soundproofing properties also allow Paulownia wood to be used in the design of musical instruments, beehives, wooden toys or even Japanese clogs!

The different above-mentioned characteristics also offer the opportunity to use Paulownia wood for a variety of unique uses, including the manufacture of barrels for wine, aqueducts in rural areas and many kitchen utensils (bowls, spoons, etc.).

Post-cut, the parts of the tree that cannot be utilized for craftsmanship can be transformed into heating pellets. Due to its specific properties, Paulownia wood has many advantages for use as fuel: during combustion, Paulownia pellets release 3 times more energy than the most common alternatives (pine, acacia, fir, etc.) … all while emitting 10 to 50 times less CO₂.

Paulownia wood is considered to be the aluminum of wood… light but strong!

PAULOWNIA WOOD

Paulownia Wood is the Less Expensive, Stronger lightweight Alternative Wood. Paulownia wood advance material composite applications far exceeds balsa in the categories of strength and weight.

Balsa has been incorrectly considered to have the highest strength to weight ratios of any wood in the world. Paulownia has been thoroughly tested and found to have a higher strength to weight ratio than Balsa! Auburn University tested the strength of 18 lb p/cubic ft. Paulownia against Balsa, with an average weight of 10 lbs p/cubic foot.

Paulownia timber is light and in extremely strong, that makes it preferable, when this correlation is important. The timber of P. elongata and P. fortunei is half the weight of oak and lighter than coniferous species timber. The high ratio of strength/weight makes the Paulownia timber irreplaceable in shipbuilding and aviation. Excellent characteristics for many types of wood products — light-colored and mostly knot-free, strong and even-grained, density between that of balsa and poplar (15 to 19 pounds per cubic ft.), which is about half the density (weight) of pine, insect and fire resistant – it possesses unlimited applications.

The low weight is the main advantage of the Paulownia timber. The correlation strength-weight (main quality coefficient) in comparison with other timber species is high, which makes the Paulownia suitable for some applications that require soft but relatively strong wood. Coefficient of deformation is lower than the most commonly used timber. It does not warp, crack or deform during drying and objects made from paulownia retain their original form.
The timber is water-resistant, it is exceptionally stable, withstands warping, breakages, deformations and easily allows all types of treatment.
