The Pinnacle of Excellence: Wallaba Hardwood Shingles
Crafted in Suriname in the heart of South America, Wallaba Hardwood Shingles epitomize quality and sustainability. Sourced from responsibly harvested Wallaba logs, this remarkable wood species thrives abundantly along the “White Sands Forest Belt” spanning the Guianas (Guyana, Suriname, and French Guiana). At TLS Shingles, we prioritize sustainability by selecting logs with a diameter exceeding 24 inches, ensuring that only mature Wallaba trees are harvested, while young ones continue to flourish in the forest for generations to come.
