About Meranti
Meranti (Red Meranti) is a reddish South-East Asian hardwood that works easily, holds screws well and takes polish beautifully. It is lighter and softer than teak, and priced well below it — which makes it a favourite for interior furniture, panelling, beading and framing where teak would be overkill.
The trade-off is durability: Meranti lacks teak's natural oils, so it is an interior timber, not one for wet areas or exposed outdoor frames. Where moisture or termites are a concern, step up to a teak such as Ivory Coast teak or Ghana teak. Where you simply need cheap, workable wood, pine is cheaper again but softer.
Stocked seasoned and cut to your plank, beam or furniture sizes at Lati Bazar.
What Meranti is used for
- Interior furniture and cabinetry
- Wall panelling and cladding
- Beading, moulding and framing
- Drawer sides and carcass work
- Carving and decorative work
How We Supply Meranti
Timber is not sold like a plywood sheet — there is no standard 8×4. Every piece is cut to what the job needs and priced by volume. Three ways it leaves our Lati Bazar counter:
🚪 Door & Window Frames (Chaukhat)
Cut to your frame sections. Bring or WhatsApp your measurements and we quote against the exact requirement.
📏 Sawn Planks & Beams
Sold by cubic foot (ghan foot) for carpenters who cut down themselves — a range of thicknesses and lengths.
🪚 Furniture-Grade Cut Sizes
Pre-cut for furniture, carving and panelling — less wastage on site and less time at the saw.
