Can I use the Ipe decking tiles for steps, stairs or edges?

August 5th, 2011

Ipe Decking Tile

Tiles can only be used for steps or stairs if they are screwed securely to the base of the stairway or if you glue them with “Concrete Glue”.  Additionally, end capping should be fixed to the edge of the tile to hide the plastic base. For the vertical edges transitioning down to the next step or to ground level, we recommend detaching the wood from the plastic base and affixing it to the surface with a quality adhesive designed for wood, and also designed for the surface you are attaching it to. You can also cover the edge of the carriage on the step above with this piece of wood. If you have a radius or curved edge that you need to cover, we recommend using bender board (available at hardware or lumber stores) that closely matches the color of the wood tile.  A contractor should be consulted for any extremely hard installations.  
The Diamond Essence Ipe decking tile can be purchased through Canadian Retail Stores or online at www.myocstore.com

Otter Creek seeks Canadian Retailers for Cutek Green Wood Preservative.

May 27th, 2011

Cutek Green Wood Preservative

Otter Creek, a  Canadian Distributor of Specialty Building Materials is seeking building retailers such as Home Hardware, Rona, Castle and Tm-Br Mart stores that are seeking a truely great wood preservative and UV protection product called Cutek Green.

Cutek Green is a special version that is manufactured to contain less than 200 grams/liter of volatile organic compounds, enabling it to used and specified on most “green” projects as a solvent based coating. Specifically, Cutek Green has been independently tested to ASTM 3960 and determined to contain 173 grams/liter. Cutek Green® is identical in appearance and performance to conventional Cutek® Wood Preservative with the exception that it diffuses into the wood substrate at a slightly higher rate and with less dry time.

Cutek as a clear

Cutek is suitable for use as a clear, water repellent preservative coating on exterior timber surfaces; however the clear coated timber surface will lightly silver with age to produce a natural weathered appearance, while retaining its dimensional stability characteristics.

If this natural silvering of the timber is undesirable, then color toned Cutek Wood Preservative must be used to delay the silvering process in addition to maintaining and enhancing the natural color of freshly oiled timber.

Otter Creek  would be glad to discuss retail opportunities within Canada by calling them at 1-800-981-3590. In the meantime this product can be purchased online at www.myocstore.com
