We now have access to 4 differnet FSC certified tropical hardwoods, Garapa, Tigerwood, Angelyn and Cumaru. Unlike Ipe (pronounced E-PAY), who’s cutting practices are highly questionable, these FSC alternatives are sustainably harvested. Ranging in color from blonde to espresso brown, like our Redwood and Western Red Cedar, these exotic hardwoods are beautiful and naturally resistant to rot and decay.
