Malaysian Timbers are classified in to four categories such as Heavy Hards, Medium Hardwoods, Light Hardwoods and Softwoods. The most popular Malaysian timber in Srilanka are TUALANG( botanical name- Koompassia excels) and KEMPAS (botanical name- Koompassia malaccensis). Both these timbers are classified as Medium Hardwoods in the "100 MALAYSIAN TIMBERS"
