Known for its strength and durability, Ipe wood is a stunning material for decking. As you can see on our galley, we regularly work with Ipe wood at Kingfisher Decking.
This hardwood is not only a great choice for decking, but often used for garden furniture.
Here are 10 reasons to consider Ipe decking for your garden in Berkshire:
- As aforementioned, this hardwood is one of the toughest on earth and measures 3680 on the Junka scale.
- Because it’s so tough, it is capable of providing up to 100 years of use, even without treatment.
