Stability, Resistance and Low Maintenance

 

This Ipe wood has a color ranging from yellowish-brown to dark brown. With a fine to medium grain, Brazilian Ipe is luxurious and aesthetically pleasing wherever it’s used. Its density is so high that it does not float on water. Thanks to this density and the high concentration of tannic acid, Ipe hardwood decking has exceptional durability and strong resistance to insects and fungi.

Our Ipe deck tiles, Ipe tiles, and Ipe wood deck tiles are imported and seasoned for stability, minimizing dimensional changes that occur with weathering. Whether you need Ipe tropical decking or custom Ipe roof deck tiles, Amazon Hardwoods delivers premium quality.

In this section, you will find everything related to our Brazilian Ipe decking, including Ipe deck tile, Ipe decking tiles, and Ipe roof deck tiles, all imported directly from legal and well-managed forests in South America, especially Brazil. As trusted Ipe suppliers and experienced Ipe decking importers, we ensure our woods are processed to the highest standards. Whether you’re designing an Ipe roof deck, sourcing Ipe wholesale, or need bulk supply for projects such as Ipe decking Hartford, our products are fully recommended for outstanding results.
