WHY PAULOWNIA, THE PRINCESS TREE

Strength - Known in the industry as the "Aluminium of Timbers", Paulownia is 30% lighter than any comparable hardwood, it is durable, strong, twist / warp-resistant and virtually rot free, very low thermal conductivity.

Growth Speed - The Princess Tree is known as the fastest growing hardwood in the world /reaches 25 – 30 m height and 70 – 80 cm. thick/ and in comparison to other timbers can be harvested in a quarter of the time /7 – 10 years/. Studies on various existing plantations have shown that the Paulownia produces an average of at least one cubic meter of processed timber per 10 year old tree.

Care and Treatment – The first three years the tree needs a lot of water and regular pruning. There are no special treatments after that. Because the tree regenerates from its roots, and does not deplete soil quality, it will re-grow to be harvested again, and so on every 7 - 10 years.

Investment Value - As an asset class, timber has consistently out-performed most stocks and commodities for the last 100 years, including oil, gas and gold. Its price on the European market is 300 EURO – 500 EURO m3.

Supply & Demand - Paulownia is native to China and the Far East and has been used in Japan for centuries as a furniture wood; chests of drawers called “Tansu” are made from this wood and nearly every Japanese home has one. Paulownia timber is currently being developed into an efficient and valuable biomass fuel.

Carbon Sequestration - Paulownia absorbs more CO2 than any other plantation tree. 

Environmental Regeneration Quality - Paulownia’s deep running roots increase the organic content of degraded soils by processing and filtering contaminants through the uptake of its vascular system, also protecting the land from soil erosion and maintains watersheds.

Physical properties of Paulownia:

Paulownia is light weight 17 to 21lbs per cubic foot as compared to Appalachian Red Oak at 39 to 41 lbs per cubic foot.


Paulownia air dries in 30 to 60 days without cupping, warping, cracking or splitting. Kiln drying takes 36 to 60 hours depending on Dry kiln configuration, horsepower and dimension of lumber.


Paulownia is resistant to decay and rotting provided it is not in permanent contact with the ground.


Paulownia species vary in porosity according to Variety but range from 75 to 88% in comparison with poplar 70 to 72%.


Fire resistance is a feature of all Paulownia, Ignition temp 420 to 430 deg Celsius as compared to Average hardwood at 220 to 225 deg Celsius.


Density of Paulownia species @10% moisture content ranges from 17.8 to 23.2 depending on Variety and growing conditions.


Thermal conductivity of Paulownia is very low thus giving it excellent heat/cool insulation properties.


Chemical composition of Paulownia Varieties: Hemicellulose Pentozan 22 to 25%. Cellulose 46 to 49%. Lignin 21 to 23% Water 7 to 8% Ash .50 to 1.1% Fiber 58.5 to 60.1%
