A type of hardwood tree found in South Asia, particularly India, valued for its timber in construction and furniture making.
From Hindi 'haldu' (हलदु), derived from Sanskrit origins. The word is regional to the Indian subcontinent where the tree grows naturally.
Haldu wood is incredibly dense and durable—Indian carpenters have been using it for centuries because it resists rot and insects naturally, making it perfect for humid tropical climates.
