Ipe Tropical Hardwood Is The #1 Best Choice For Your Exteriors

Ipe Tropical Hardwood (pronounced ee-pay) is one of the densest hardwoods available for outdoor construction. It is very thick (in fact, sinks in water), has the same fire rating as concrete and steel, and is mildew and decay-resistant. 

Its denseness and natural oils make it virtually impenetrable to insects (so insect deterioration is not an issue). Ipe does not scratch or splinter easily. It does not become hot in the sun. In addition, it has a high coefficient of friction, making it perfect for outdoor and seaside construction.

 

Ipe tropical hardwood comes from the rainforest of the Americas, where it is exposed to a lot of rain and harsh sun. Thanks to its natural environment, it can deal with bad weather or other threats that surround it. 

 

Its origin has made it the hardest and most durable wood in the world. Its density and natural oils make it impenetrable to almost everything. Ipe Tropical Hardwood can also withstand saltwater corrosion. Therefore, it is the preferred choice for beach houses constructions.

Weight 3.2496137446051 lbs
Length 1', 2', 3', 4', 5', 6', 7', 8', 9', 10', 11', 12', 13', 14', 15', 16', 17', 18', 19', 20'

Care

Maintenance: Ipe does not scratch or splinter easily, which means that it will maintain the structure's integrity for over 25 years. However, to preserve the original color of Ipe, it will have to be oiled at least once per year, depending on the climate and the sun exposure. If Ipe is not sanded or oiled, it will turn to a gray color often referred to as a silver patina.

Preservation: Ipe does not require any special treatment. It will last for over 40 years without maintenance, but the hardwood naturally weathers to a beautiful, silver-gray patina. A deck oil with UV inhibitor or sealers is an excellent option to maintain this rich tone.
