The precious woods, Teak and Ipe ( Brazilian Walnut) are optimal woods for outdoor use. They both possess high durability and have very little risk of cracking and splintering.
In addition, they are weather-resistant, hard-wearing and dimensionally stable. This dimensional stability ensures that your precious wood terrace remains distortion-free and barefoot-friendly even as it ages. Therefore, authentic high grade wood is ideal for wooden terraces, balcony floors , pool decks and garden furniture.  

Teak floor boards have an olive brown color and dark stripes in the wood are typical of Burmese teak and look very attractive. The rather light brown wood darkens over time and takes on gray and silver tones. Genuine teak is known as the King of Woods. The creme de la creme, so to speak, is Burmese teak.  

Due to its special wood structure, Ipe can exhibit irregularities on the surface in the form of rough spots. These supposed imperfections are a natural characteristic of the wood and are highly valued for their strength and appearance.

In some cases of Ipe wood, mineral deposits can occur depending on the location and the soil conditions. The minerals are released during planing which can lead to shiny spots on the surface. Customers like to glorify this as "Swarovski-Ipe". The minerals have no adverse effect on the wood; on the contrary, they contribute to the wood’s strength.  

We only use raw material that has been dried for several months and that complies with Class 1 Durability.  When you select a Burmese teak or an Ipe wood, you are not only  committed to sustainable solutions, but you support meaningful forestry.

Tree mining has been drastically reduced by governmental agencies in recent years, guaranteeing the continuity of these unique species of wood. It is important that one does not fall back on cheap and low-quality plantation wood, because the many advantages that one can expect from both Burmese teak and Ipe can be met.
