Cumaru Tropical Hardwood 4×10 Is The Ally To Build The Most Amazing Projects
Cumaru Tropical Hardwood (pronounced Ku-mah-rue), also known as Brazilian Teak, is one of the densest woods available for outdoor construction, second only to Ipe. Cumaru Tropical Hardwood is very dense, which is why it is ideal for exterior use, as it is mildew and decay-resistant.
In addition, Cumaru Tropical Hardwood has often been used for decking, flooring, railroad ties, and other purposes. Just like Ipe, Cumaru has an A1 fire rating, does not scratch or splinter easily, does not become hot in the sun, and has a high friction coefficient. This makes it perfect for outdoor and seaside construction.

At Brazilian Lumber, we also offer other hardwood species, all the hardware you need for the installation process, artificial turf & ivy, and interior flooring. Please let us know if you need help locating the instructions or return policies, and we will readily assist you.
