Cumaru or Brazilian Teak is an exotic Brazilian hardwood that has a range of color variations.  Some Cumaru is golden yellow while other boards are a light red to purplish brown in color. The color variations that are in the wood are part of what has made it so appealing in the design world.  The boards have interlocking grains that highlight the natural beauty of this wood species. Cumaru wood has no visible knots and is smooth to the touch. Cumaru can be made to look more uniform in color by sanding and oiling it or artistic arrangements can be created by mixing the blend of the various colored tone boards.

Cumaru or Brazilian Teak is used for outdoor projects as well as indoor flooring.  It is often chosen for decks, siding, fences, privacy screens, and ceiling claddings.  For interiors it is used for hardwood flooring and stairs.  As a resistant and beautiful wood, it is often used in high-end projects and luxury housing and resorts.   Cumaru is perfect for high foot traffic areas as it does not scratch easily and has a high coefficient of friction, which makes it less likely anyone will slip on it.

Cumaru or Brazilian Teak is a great option for anyone looking for a long lasting and beautiful wood at a lower cost than other hardwoods such as Ipe.   It can be used both indoors and outdoors, which is a wonderful way to create a seamless transition for indoor-outdoor living areas.  It has color variations which means it is ideal for creating patterns or designs in floors.

We are direct importers of Cumaru, which means there are no middle-men to pay when you buy from us.  That can equate to big savings! Another reason you save money when you buy Cumaru is that as a silica filled dense wood it does not bend as easily as softwoods or composite decking.  This means that less structural material is required as you can space your joists further apart, saving on materials for the structure and hardware.

We offer special trade pricing for professionals who open an account with us.  Carpenters, contractors, builders, architects, and designers get special access to weekly deals and can get priority shipping to their jobsites.  We have been chosen by many building professionals as their one stop shop for all hardwood decking including Cumaru, Ipe, deck tiles, and all the hardware and oils or sealers required to complete the job.
