Ipé: characteristics, density and benefits

Ipé is considered by specialists to be one of the finest tropical hardwoods in the world. Thanks to its fine grain, great hardness and sophisticated finish, it brings a touch of genuine luxury, elegance and beauty to any indoor or outdoor space.

With an exceptional density of 1050 kg/m³, ipé is so dense and heavy that it does not float in water. This compact structure, combined with its high tannin content, makes it a material of maximum durability.

Why choose ipé?

• Extreme durability: Unbeatable natural resistance to attack by insects, termites and fungi.
• High fire resistance: Contrary to popular belief about timber materials, ipé has excellent fire resistance, offering superior safety.
• Ideal for demanding projects: Its excellent performance against weather and wear makes it perfect for decking, facades, terraces and exposed structures.
