Tali wood has a yellow to orange-brown color when freshly cut. After exposure to light and air, it gradually turns into a dark brown or dark reddish brown shade. The narrow sapwood, which can grow up to 60 mm wide, varies from yellow-gray to dark yellow. The structure of Tali is very uniform, without striking markings, although sometimes slightly darker colored stripes occur. With a durability class I for the heartwood, Tali is an excellent choice for long-term projects.
Tali wood is widely used for heavy outdoor construction, such as waterworks and bridges. It is also suitable for floors, parquet, thresholds, facade cladding and turned work. In general, similar applications are found as with Azobé wood.
Due to the high density (approximately 900 kg/m3) and the cross wire, Tali is quite difficult to machine and tools can quickly dull. Good extraction is necessary, as Tali contains substances that can be harmful to health and cause irritation to the nose and throat.
Since January 1, 2012, Tali wood can be supplied with CE marking according to the NEN 5493 or British B(ritish) S(tandard) standard. Applying a CE mark to construction timber is usually mandatory within the European Union. The purpose of the CE mark is to remove trade restrictions within the European economic area. Boogaerdt Hout declares with the CE marking that the product complies with the provisions of the reference documents (conformity) and that it can therefore be traded anywhere in the European Economic Area.
