Garapa Wood Decking
Garapa wood decking — sometimes called Brazilian Blonde — is a premium tropical hardwood that delivers the performance of Ipe at a lower price point. With a Janka hardness of 1,686 lbf, Garapa is significantly harder than composite decking, teak, and most domestic hardwoods, making it a smart choice for homeowners who want real wood durability without the Ipe price tag.
Garapa’s most distinctive feature is its warm golden color — a rich honey tone that brightens any outdoor space. Like Ipe, Garapa is naturally resistant to rot, insects, and moisture, and can last 25–40 years with minimal maintenance. It takes a smooth, splinter-free finish that makes it ideal for barefoot decking, pool surrounds, and family entertaining spaces.
At Buy Ipe Direct, we import Garapa directly from Brazil and ship it straight to your jobsite, cutting out the middleman so you get contractor-grade hardwood at competitive prices. Available in eased edge and pregrooved profiles in popular sizes including 5/4 x 6 — the most requested residential decking dimension.
