Itauba is a tropical timber which is ideal for decking projects. The colour of the timber ranges from a yellowish- brown through to a deep dark brown colour. It’s an exceptionally durable wood and, like other tropical woods, doesn’t take treatment well.
Found in the tropics of Brazil, Itauba, is notoriously dense. It can be used for garden decking and boat decking, so can handle a large amount of use. Even when installed the moisture movement in the timber is low, this means that it doesn’t warp easily.
The advantage of buying our machined decking is that you don’t have to work on the timber yourself. This wood has an interlocked grain which makes it tricky to machine as it has a blunting effect on tools.
Select and Better Grade Itauba
We supply Itauba in Select and Better grade. It has minimal knots in the wood, and any that are present will be small sound knots. The timber is kiln dried, leaving it in its most stable form.
The profile it is supplied in is fully reversable so you get to choose which side of the board you would like to see. You may choose based on colour, knot content, grain pattern and any other aesthetic properties you can determine.
Fixing Itauba Decking
It is important to pre-drill any holes in your Itauba decking before fixing it because the wood is likely to split. Make sure to use stainless steel nails or screws for fixings, anything else will react poorly with the tannins in the timber, resulting in blue stains and rusted metal.
The boards are laid out with a gap in between, usually 6mm or under, a gap any bigger would result in items like chair legs falling through.
Although the timber doesn’t take well to treatments, despite that though its lifespan is still very long.
The Itauba Tree
The tree is distributed across Brazil and is available from well managed sources however it is important we protect it and cultivate it properly. This is so that we can all enjoy this exceptional timber.
The Itauba tree stands between 30-40m tall and can have a diameter up to a 1m.

Just a quick line to say thanks for the swift delivery of the ash I ordered a couple of weeks ago. It is now installed as stair treads/ landing and looks superb. Just one small gripe, the delivery driver didn't call me to say he was on his way which meant I had to rush over; he did help me carry it into the house though. I think the picture does them justice.
