BUILDING VALUE CHAINS IS AT THE HEART OF OUR AMBITION

Tomorrow’s world needs
abundant, affordable wood

Ikiwood aims to develop agroforestry plantations by partnering with French farmers. Our ambition: to connect the uses of paulownia with the renewal of wood resources.

Paulownia wood: lightweight solutions for professionals

Ikiwood develops and supplies paulownia wood products for timber merchants and wood professionals. Our work combines expertise in this species, sourcing, processing and application development. From panels and cladding to profiles, we help manufacturers, craftspeople and designers choose a solution suited to their projects, with stock in France and accessible technical documentation.

Lightweight wood for interiors, boating and mobility

Paulownia stands out for its low density, dimensional stability and ease of machining. This lightweight wood opens up possibilities for interior fit-outs, furniture, campervan and caravan interiors, and boating equipment. Explore the properties of paulownia wood to compare physical data, understand moisture behaviour and prepare for its use.

A range of lightweight panels, cladding and profiles

Our lightweight panel range includes solid paulownia edge-glued panels, three-ply panels, Iki-Ply plywood and Iki Tech blockboard. Each construction meets a different need for weight, stability or surface resistance. We also offer interior panelling, exterior cladding, acoustic panels, battens, skirting boards and mouldings. The paulownia product catalogue brings together formats, thicknesses, compositions and technical data sheets to guide your choice.

Available products and technical support

Supply planning starts with your requirements: dimensions, quantities, appearance, finish, processing and schedule. Ikiwood helps timber merchants and businesses make their selection. A sample request lets you examine the material and carry out your own tests; our distribution network helps you find a contact.

Practical applications, from wood to project

The choice of a panel or profile makes sense in the finished project. Reducing the weight of an interior, producing a stable component, machining a shape or preparing a finish: we start with the intended use to match the right product with the right processing. Our customers’ projects show the variety of paulownia wood applications in interiors, mobility and bespoke creations.

Building value chains is at the heart of our ambition

Developing markets for wood and helping renew the resource are part of the same approach. Ikiwood aims to build a European paulownia value chain by connecting plantations, processing and uses. Discover our vision for the tree and the paulownia value chain and our plantation project, including on former agricultural land, to understand the connection between today’s products and tomorrow’s resources.
