What we make
Families, not a fixed catalogue. Each is built to your drawings, dimensions, species and finish.
Mayan chestnut (parota) flooring
Warm, lively Mexican hardwood with interlocked grain and a broad colour range.
Oak flooring
Hard-wearing planks that take stain evenly; plain-, rift- or quarter-sawn faces.
Solid plank
Single-piece boards, sandable many times over the life of the floor.
Engineered plank
A real-wood wear layer over a stable core — wider boards and more installation options.
Patterns
Herringbone and chevron in solid or engineered construction.
Trims & stair parts
Matching nosings, reducers, thresholds and treads.
Plank preview
See it laid.

Why build it in Mexico?
Flooring buyers live by lead time and price per square foot. Mexico offers both: trucks rather than containers, minimal or zero tariffs on qualifying goods, and reorders that arrive before the showroom runs out.
- Minimal or zero tariffs for goods that qualify under USMCA
- Days by truck to US and Canadian docks
- Specs followed exactly, samples approved before production
- White Lion handles border crossing, customs brokerage and logistics
