IKAL CHUKUM

The spirit of the Chukum

Ikal Chukum offers an ecological and natural alternative in the world of construction. It comes from the Mexican region of the Yucatan Peninsula, the land of the pheasant and deer.

Our chukum is obtained from the natural resin of the chukum tree, combined with lime to create a solid and ecological paste. Widely used in local architecture to clad walls and exterior surfaces, this strong and durable material stands out for its ability to withstand the tropical climate.

The smooth texture and earthy tones of chukum lend a distinctive rustic look to structures, making it an iconic element of the region's colonial architecture. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, chukum also offers waterproofing properties and moisture protection, making it a popular choice for sustainable construction in hot, humid and desert climates.
