Ipe & Cumaru In Stock at Mason’s Mill

Outdoor Season Starts Here — and we’re stocked with the hardwoods you can trust.

When it comes to decking, siding, and high-performance outdoor applications, Ipe and Cumaru remain two of the most trusted species in the industry. Known for their strength, beauty, and longevity, these tropical hardwoods are go-to materials for contractors, architects, and builders across the country.

But as demand continues to rise, availability has taken a serious hit.

What’s Happening in the Market?

In November 2024, both Ipe and Cumaru were added to Appendix II of CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species). This designation recognizes these species as overexploited and imposes strict new documentation and export requirements for any legal trade. While the goal is to promote sustainability and responsible sourcing, the change has caused widespread shipment delays, tighter restrictions, and reduced supply from producing countries—leading to elevated prices and frustrating backlogs.

Why Mason’s Mill is Different

While the market scrambles to adjust, Mason’s Mill & Lumber is ahead of the curve. We’ve secured a large inventory of both Ipe and Cumaru, all CITES-compliant and sustainably harvested through responsible forestry practices. That means we have the materials you need—in stock and ready to ship, with full transparency and documentation for peace of mind.

Whether you’re sourcing for decking, rain screen siding, privacy fences, or outdoor cladding, you can count on our Ipe and Cumaru to deliver exceptional durability, dimensional stability, and long-term beauty—without the delays or guesswork.
