THE POPULAR CHOICE AMONG HOMEOWNERS
Imagine a wood that doesn’t require constant chemical treatments or maintenance to withstand mold and decay. Now also imagine a golden color that has gained popularity in modern architecture by being able to elevate the exterior of any home? Stop imagining, you found it.
What’s to love about Garapa
• The natural resistance to rot, decay, and insects.
• The long lifespan of over 25 years, leaving you with a project you can be proud of for years to come.
• It’s generally easy to work with. Glues and finishes well.
• The natural resistance to scratches and slips for those who like to walk barefoot outside.
• It is less prone to splintering than softwoods when properly maintained.
• The great value for those seeking low-cost lumber that is exceptionally strong and equally hard.
• Peace of mind knowing its fire resistance is near that of steel.
Keep an eye on
• Its density and interlocking grain may make it somewhat difficult to work with.
• It requires well-sharpened tools but can be sawed, planed, turned, and molded.
• Due to its hardness, it may be resistant to nailing and screwing, however, it can be easily glued.
