About
Azobe or Ekki is a hardwood species native to West Africa, more specifically to the regions of Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Nigeria, and the Congo, among others. It’s a strong, hard, and heavy wood with outstanding durability in terms of resistance to water, insects, and weathering. The dark reddish-brown heartwood is an attractive choice for construction. The surface has small streaks formed by pores containing white deposits.
Description
Azobe is generally difficult to work with due to its hardness and interlocked grain, but it’s an excellent marine lumber, which is why the demand is always high. It can last very long even when exposed to water and rough weather. Common applications include marine uses such as boatbuilding, bridges, decking, and outdoor projects. It is also sometimes used for making furniture because of its attractive colour and streaks. Azobe flooring is hard, storing, and beautiful.
