Wood Properties:
It is described to be fairly hard to work but can be finished smoothly with a high natural polish. Though non-siliceous, there is more than the usual dulling of cutters. This species sands easily and takes a good finish. 
Drying and Shrinkage: Cabreuva can take some time to dry properly but does have good stability characteristics once dry.
Shrinkage from green to ovendry: radial 3.8%; tangential 6.2%; volumetric 10.0%. 
These values are very low for a wood of this high density. 
Durability: The heartwood is reported to be highly resistant to attack by decay fungi. Both sapwood and heartwood are highly resistant to preservative treatments. 

Features:
Flooring, furniture, interior trim, turnery, railroad crossties. 
The tree is well known for its yield of balsam used in perfumes. 
General Characteristics: Heartwood reddish brown becoming deep red or somewhat purplish upon exposure; 
fairly uniform to striped; 
sharply demarcated from the white sapwood. 
Luster medium to high; 
texture medium; 
grain is typically interlocked;

 without distinctive taste, but may have a pleasant spicy scent.
