Sucupira (Brazilian Walnut) Solid Unfinished Hardwood Flooring
Brazilian Walnut - Sucupira is our substitute of Ipe. It is more uniform is color and has a coarse grain texture. It is quite stable and does not have the toxic dust to cause allergic reactions as often found in Ipe. Sucupira has a hardness of 2880 lbs/sq". It is easy to install, to sand and to finish and will accept most coatings. Sucupira will not change color (darken) much over time. However, an oil-based finish will turn the wood darker while the water-based finish retain more the natural color of the wood.
