Ipe wood decking and ipe hardwood deck tiles are popular due to their beauty, strength, and hardness. A sustainably harvested wood, Ipe (pronounced ee-pay), is imported from South America. It is highly scratch and dent resistant. Decks, terraces, or walkways made from ipe wood will hardly reveal dog nail scratches, high heels, or furniture scuffs. With ipe wood you don’t have to worry about pests or water. This wood species is highly resistant to problems related to moisture and insects.

Ipe wood’s density and weight render it very stable so that it changes very little when exposed to the elements. With no finishing, ipe decking will last for decades, achieving a nice silver finish. It really is no wonder that ipe hardwood has been a top choice for both outdoor and indoor venues for use in commercial, civic, and luxury residential applications. HDG Building Materials offers ipe wood decking and finished ipe hardwood decking tiles. FSC® products are available.
