Our toughest hardwood decking is manufactured from opepe, a Timber famed for its density and durability. Used extensively for dykes and coastal protection, opepe is exceptionally strong, tough and long-lasting.
The colour of opepe ranges from dark honey to golden yellow although overall, the colour is one of the most consistent when compared to other hardwood species. Opepe also has the advantage of not suffering from some of the afflictions suffered by other species, such as pin worm hole, excessive warping or blue stain. Although, like all timbers, opepe will weather to a silver-grey colour after a couple of years of outdoor use, its original colour can be maintained with the use of an exterior grade decking oil.
Please note that these product properties are not a replacement for the manufacturer's literature and it is always recommended that Vastern Timber is consulted before specifying.
