Monterey
Garapa finished Decking & Cladding
Garapa is a striking tropical wood option but unfinished it can be really bright. It also fades quickly due to the naturally light color. We finish Monterey to lessen the bright yellow and provide a UV resistance that will allow it to hold its compelling color longer. A very hard wood, Garapa makes an excellent decking species but is also just as home for cladding, fences, and all matter of landscape architecture. Like many of our tropical options in Horizons, Monterey has a class A fire rating.
- Oil based, stabilizing finish
- UV resistance that helps to maintain color longer*
- Easy to maintain finish designed for harshest conditions
- 4-6″ widths and 4-18′ lengths available in decking/cladding boards

*consult our care & maintenance guide regarding upkeep of finish to maintain color
Standard Alpha Profiles for Decking & Cladding
For decking we use a standard S4S, E4E (surfaced 4 sides, eased on 4 edges) profile that can face screwed or grooved for hidden fastener install. However when used for cladding we have chosen a few additional profiles based on the popularity and performance for either vertical or horizontal cladding applications. If your design requires something different, custom profiles are also available but may incur additional production time and cost. Feel free to browse our moulding profile database for many more options.
