Request Free Ipe Wood Samples
See and feel the quality before you buy. We’ll send you actual ipe wood samples — free of charge — so you can compare color, grain, and texture against your project requirements before placing your order.
What You’ll Receive
Your free sample pack includes small pieces of our current ipe decking stock. You can see the natural reddish-brown color, feel the density and grain texture, and test how the wood takes oil finish. Ipe varies in color from board to board — samples give you a realistic preview of what you’ll receive.
Who Should Request Samples
Sample requests are ideal for homeowners comparing ipe against composite or other hardwoods, architects and designers specifying materials for a project, contractors building a sample board for a client presentation, and anyone who wants to verify quality before committing to a full order.

About Our Ipe Wood
We source premium Brazilian ipe (Tabebuia serratifolia) direct from FSC-certified mills. Our decking stock is kiln-dried to 12-15% moisture content for stability and dimensional accuracy. We carry standard 1×4, 1×6, 5/4×4, and 5/4×6 profiles in lengths from 8 to 20 feet, with custom lengths available on volume orders.
Ipe is the most durable natural decking wood available — rated Class A for fire resistance (same as concrete and steel), resistant to insects, rot, and weathering, and carrying a natural lifespan of 75+ years when properly maintained. It’s the reason ipe decking is specified on high-end residential projects, commercial boardwalks, and public parks around the world.
