Great news out of Wisconsin! The city of Green Bay is well on its way to completed a major municipal project called the City Deck.
Of course, this news wouldn’t make this blog without the additional nugget that this commercial project is using ipe decking.
Think about it…
What other hardwood decking will be able to, year after year, withstand the bitter cold and heavy snow of a Green Bay winter? Pressure treated decking? Heck no! Composite decking? Yeah, right. The plastic will delaminate, then soak up water like a sponge until it finally disintegrates. Ugh. The hardworking people of Green Bay deserve better than that and I’m glad to see that they did their research and chose the perfect decking material for their specific climate.
At AdvantageLumber.com, our ipe decking can be purchased at wholesale prices. You can order wholesale decking is available to anyone who needs a truckload or shipping container’s worth of this exotic hardwood.
