Andiroba is a type of exotic wood floor that comes from Brazil. It is in the same family as mahogany and looks very similar to the popular wood, giving it the nickname Brazilian mahogany. Andiroba is a tall tree that grows to heights of 130 meters in the Amazon rainforest. It has become a popular species of wood, especially as an alternative to genuine Mahogany as it continues to increase in price.

Cumaru, also known as Brazilian teak, is also grown in South America. Cumaru is a popular choice for exotic wood floors because it is extremely stable, is very dense and durable, and has rich coloring. The color of cumuru ranges from tan to a rich brown.
