Bring the beauty of the tropics to your home siding

While there are many great choices for wood siding, Ipè gives you a unique, beautiful and durable alternative. With colors ranging from red-amber hues to dark brown, Ipè offers a variety of beautiful looks.

Durable and resilient

Ipè has the strength to match its beauty. It's an extremely dense, tight-grained wood that's virtually clear from knots. And with its high rating for insect and decay resistance, Ipè offers a durability that's similar to pressure-treated woods.

Finishing Ipè

Australian Timber Oil helps maintain the natural look while slowing the graying process of the wood. Keep it looking beautiful with a maintenance cycle for horizontal surfaces of every 1-2 year.
