From Growing to Transforming sustainable tropical timber into our flagship product line

Thermally Modified Wood for modern, low-impact construction

Rooted in Costa Rica’s northern zone, Silviterra is a vertically integrated forestry company that grows and transforms sustainable tropical wood from seed to final product. We cultivate Gmelina arborea across over 1,200 hectares of managed plantations, supported by 700+ hectares of protected forest.

From planting and forest management to sawmilling and value-added processing, we manage the entire supply chain. Our commitment to regeneration and conservation is reflected in everything we produceβ€”whether it's a pallet built for export or our flagship line of Thermally Modified Wood for modern, low-impact construction.

100% Costa Rican. Globally minded. Planet first.
