What type of wood is the outdoor furniture made from?
Most of the outdoor furniture we build is made from each dimensional pine lumber or ipe wood. All of the lumber used to make the beamCouch is pressure-treated pine, so it will endure the elements for a long time. Additionally, the pieces are finished in an outdoor stain and top coated with a varnish to maintain color fastness over time. The pieces made from ipe wood are extremely weather-resistant. Ipe wood is an exotic species primarily harvested in Brazil, and is often referred to as Brazilian walnut or iron wood. It is so dense that it will not float and can withstand the elements for up to 40 years without any finish applied.
