Sourced from Africa, Iroko as a specie is the most challenging timber that Southgate Timber sell. The timber is imported to the UK as dimension-cut sawn boards in a kiln-dried state. The board itself has a multi-directional grain which creates challenges during the procurement process. When sawn boards are ripped to width this can cause a release of tension in some pieces resulting in twisting or buckling over the length. The multi-directional grain can lift in some boards when the face and sides are machined. In addition, the makeup of this specie can cause some end-splitting and side splinters. For all these factors Southgate Timber recommends a minimum 15% wastage be factored into Iroko orders for these natural defects.
Please note small sections like this in Iroko can be prone to movement so strong and regular spaced face fixings will be required, we recommend pre-drilling and Spax stainless steel facade screws at maximum 600mm centres.
At Southgate Timber one of our biggest strengths is our fast and efficient delivery service. Based in Moreton, near Harlow in Essex close to the M25 we cover all the UK mainland.
