Description

The tropical tree Sipo is one of the giants of the forests of West and Central Africa: it is sometimes higher than 60 m, for 2 m in diameter!

Its bole is straight, with buttresses or bases that can reach up to 5 m, and covered with a silver-grey to yellow-grey cracked bark. The edge of Sipo, not very fragrant, is pinkish-red.

Uses of Sipo Wood

• Furniture and cabinetry: Sipo’s rich reddish-brown color with a hint of purple, along with its ability to take stains well, makes it a beautiful choice for furniture and cabinetry.
• Flooring:Sipo is a tough wood that can withstand wear and tear, making it suitable for flooring applications. It can be sanded and finished to a smooth surface.
• Doors and windows: Due to its weather resistance properties, Sipo is commonly used for exterior doors and window frames.
• Veneer: Sipo can be sliced into thin sheets of veneer that can be applied to other surfaces for a decorative look.
