Discount Ipe Decking is now being offered by Stone+Wood Outlet in Portland, Oregon. Ipe Select Grade Decking has been imported for many years into the U.S. and represents one of the best values in naturally durable hardwood decking. For less money than Mahogany / Meranti, Cumaru, Massaranduba, Cambara, TigerWood and other exotic woods, Select grade Ipe is one of the best options available - that is, if you can find it.
Select grade Ipe includes some minor machining defects such as back side planer skip and very small open defects. Select Ipe also includes small defects such as reverse fiber and small insect holes.
Yet, Select grade Ipe is still naturally durable with and exterior life expectancy in excess of 50 years. Select Ipe is also competitive with many other species including clear cedar and redwood.
Ipe is one of the most durable woods on the planet. Clearly it is the best choice for exterior decking, but price has driven many people away. We are offering this select grade as a direct alternative to higher priced tropical wood decking products and composites.
