Cape Town, Western Cape Jun 4, 2025 – Rare Woods, a well-known South African name in premium timber, is showcasing its extensive range of high-quality structural and decking timbers. With a long-standing reputation for excellence, Rare Woods continues to empower builders, architects, and homeowners to create impressive outdoor spaces that reflect the warmth and natural beauty of South Africa.

A well-crafted outdoor deck not only increases a home’s value but also provides a relaxing and inviting extension to the living space. It enhances the beloved South African “braai-and-pool” lifestyle, offering an ideal setting for relaxation, entertainment, and strengthening family bonds.

To meet the growing demand for top-tier outdoor timber, Rare Woods offers a diverse selection of decking options, ranging from traditional to exotic woods. Highlights include Ipe, considered the “best in class” for outdoor decking, and Purpleheart, known for its vibrant color and durability. The extensive inventory also features pre-profiled decking in Balau, Garapa, Massaranduba, Thermo-treated Ash, Siberian Larch, and treated European Pine, all carefully chosen for their strength and aesthetic appeal.

For those with specific design ideas, Rare Woods provides customized solutions. Customers can request custom-made decking in more exotic timber species, such as Burmese Teak and Thermo-treated Oak, catering to even the most refined tastes.
Rare Woods is dedicated to helping customers realize their visions, using the finest materials available for everything from poolside decks to expansive entertainment areas. Their timbers offer a combination of style and functionality.

In addition to decking products, Rare Woods provides a range of structural hardwoods suitable for deck sub-structures and pergolas. Large stocks of highly durable species like Garapa, Massaranduba, and Balau facilitate the construction of cohesive and structurally sound outdoor structures. Other popular choices include Jarrah, Iroko, Afrormosia, and Western Red Cedar, each with unique color profiles and grain patterns to suit various styles. Burmese Teak, celebrated for its unmatched elegance and performance, remains the top choice for those seeking luxury.
