Ipe Deck Tiles
Bring the look and performance of genuine Ipe hardwood to balconies, rooftops, terraces and existing hard surfaces with Ipe deck tiles. Their modular format makes it possible to create a refined wood surface without using traditional full-length decking boards.
Ipe deck tiles can be used with interlocking connector systems or adjustable pedestal systems depending on the application. They are particularly well suited for rooftop decks, concrete patios, balconies and other areas where accessibility, drainage and flexible installation are important.
Available in multiple tile sizes and configurations, Ipe deck tiles make it easier to transform existing exterior surfaces into functional, premium outdoor living areas.
Ideal For: Rooftops • Balconies • Concrete Patios • Terraces • Pool Areas
Ipe Siding & Cladding
Extend the natural beauty of Ipe beyond the deck with premium Ipe siding and cladding. Its dense hardwood structure, rich variation and architectural appearance make Ipe an exceptional material for exterior walls, façades, soffits, privacy features and modern rainscreen applications.
Ipe can be maintained with exterior oil to preserve and enhance its warm natural tones or allowed to weather naturally into an elegant silver-grey patina. Hidden-fastener profiles such as the Ipédex system provide a clean, uninterrupted surface with minimal visible hardware.
From contemporary residential architecture to demanding commercial applications, Ipe cladding combines genuine hardwood character with outstanding exterior durability.
Ideal For: Exterior Walls • Rainscreens • Façades • Soffits • Privacy Screens • Architectural Features
