About This Product

■I want to enjoy it barefoot

Itauba contains a lot of oil, so the surface of the wood is smooth. Itauba is also a wood that exhibits very little hangnails over time compared to other hardwoods. Itauba is also used in elementary schools, kindergartens, poolsides and parks where people walk barefoot, making it the perfect wood decking material for those who want to play barefoot with their children and pets.

■Excellent durability

Itauba is a broad-leaved tree in the Lauraceae family that is native to Brazil in South America, and along with ipe, it has been used locally for structural materials such as wooden bridges, sleepers, and telephone poles since ancient times as the most reliable wood. It is a resilient and tenacious wood that has strong bending strength and is resistant to breaking. It is highly resistant to pests such as termites, and has a durability of over 25 to 30 years, making it an extremely suitable wood for decking materials. Itauba also has a unique oil component. Even if it is in water or in the soil, this oil component prevents moisture from penetrating and suppresses corrosion. In South America and Europe, it is recognized and used as the best wood that can last for over 30 years even when used underwater. Itauba does not require embalming, so it does not have any negative effects on the body.

■Excellent workability and easy handling

Itauba is relatively soft and smooth among hardwoods, so it is easier to process such as screwing and cutting than other hardwoods. Itauba is a wood decking material that is recommended for DIY beginners.

■Changes in facial expressions are also attractive

Itauba has the characteristic that its color changes when exposed to air and ultraviolet rays. At the beginning of sawing and processing, the wood is a beautiful olive color, but it changes to brownish brown and eventually settles down to a rich silver-gray color. This color change is also one of the charms of Itauba.

■Attractive price

Although the durability of Itauba is comparable to the famous hardwoods Urin and Ipe, it is currently less well-known and therefore priced very cheaply. The supply of major lumber is expected to decrease in the future, and the price of itauba is also expected to rise in the coming years, so now is the perfect time to use it.
