In a lot of people’s eyes, exotic hardwoods are the perfect building material because of their extremely dense core which not only makes them strong but also mold resistant, impervious to insects and the reason that they are classified as a class A fire rated material. Exotic hardwoods not only add value to your home or commercial space, but also add a luxurious, timeless look. With 5 species of tropical timber to choose from, Red Balau, Yellow Balau (Yellow Bangkirai), Dark Red Meranti, IPE and Cumaru, these tropical hardwoods are often used as a decking material or for pergolas, fencing, privacy screens, siding, and soffits.
