People just love creating their comfortable places in which they can relax and enjoy their time — especially outdoor spots such as balconies. Today we’re talking about a special sort of wood, which is extremely durable in outdoor conditions and makes for the perfect choice if you want to construct your outdoor paradise. In this article, we’re covering everything you need to know about Ipe Wood, so let’s begin.

What is Ipe Wood?

If you haven’t already heard about this type of wood, it’s extremely popular for creating places that need to be exposed to the outdoor conditions. The Ipe wood is also known as the Brazilian walnut. It is a very beautiful and exotic wood that comes from South America. This Ipe Wood allows us to make very hard and strong structures that are completely, naturally resistant to rot, weather, abrasion and insects. It’s about twice more dense than other sorts of wood and up to five times harder. That’s already a pretty impressive start. Not to mention that it looks fantastic and tons of high-class hotels are constructing their outdoor parts from Ipe Wood.

The color is somewhat medium to darker brown, which makes the perfect suit for interior designs as well. One of the biggest selling points for this type of wood is the huge lifespan that it has. It can last up to seventy-five years without losing even slightly of its beauty. If you want to build something that is going to last for a very long time, while also looking amazing and being resistant to rot, abrasion and rain, then choosing the Ipe Wood will be your best decision.

Let’s take a look at some of the pros and cons of the Ipe Wood. We’ll start with the pros.

  • Strong

There are no doubts that Ipe Wood is one of the strongest types of wood that you’ll find on the market. If you like solid structures, this is your perfect choice.

  • Long Lasting

What good is making something beautiful that will crumble and start rotting after a few years? The Ipe Wood will make sure that your construction will last for years and years before even slightly changing its color, which can even then be reverted by doing a little polishing and cleaning. It’s immortal.

  • Resistance to almost everything

It’s fire resistant, rot resistant and also insects don’t like it, so you won’t have to worry about those pests chewing on your balcony or whatever you decide to make from this amazing type of wood. It’s really hard to find wood that both looks beautiful, it’s long lasting, hard, and resistant to pests and rot. There’s a reason why the Ipe Wood is so famous and widely used.

Now for the “cons.” There’s only one thing that a very small number of people are not satisfied with, but we think of this to be just another advantage, not a bad side at all. They say that the Ipe Wood is heavy and requires pre-drilling or hidden installation hardware, however, we love our structures to be solid and hard, so we don’t see a problem in this at all.
