Exotic wood assortment in Manitoba
At our e-counters, you can find exotic hardwoods perfect for creating high-end exteriors and interiors in both residential and commercial properties. In Winnipeg, the most popular uses for hardwood are flooring, siding, fence and decking. Kayu has been providing customers with top-quality lumber for over 30 years, catering to even the most discerning tastes.
A particular favourite among Manitoba, especially in Winnipeg, is IPE wood. This highly textured, deep, and exceptionally beautiful wood is extraordinarily resistant to virtually any damage. For cold winters, IPE wood is the best option for creating sustainable outdoor seating areas in Winnipeg.
Hardwoods properties and why are they often used in Winnipeg?
Along with softwoods, hardwoods are distinguished by three key criteria:
- Aesthetic: Hardwoods have a unique depth, giving the impression of falling through the cracks when you look at them. Their texture conveys the character of the wood, reflecting a noble origin through smooth and specific lines. The color is richer and more refined. While aesthetic properties are hard to describe in words, a glance at hardwood and softwood side by side makes the difference immediately apparent.
- Mechanical: Hardwoods are unusually dense, almost as if designed for life beyond our planet. On Earth, they are highly resistant to most household damage. Even extreme weather events like hail and floods cause little harm. While tornadoes can be destructive to everything, hardwoods still offer remarkable durability.
- Physical: Hardwoods are highly resistant to moisture, parasites, temperature fluctuations, and decay, thanks to their unique chemical composition.
In Manitoba’s climate, with its strong winds and harsh winters, softwoods are too vulnerable. Instead of lasting an average of 20 years, softwoods may barely survive half that time. This makes using hardwood lumber Winnipeg for decks, railings, and siding a smart investment, ensuring longevity and durability.
