African Sapele is a durable hardwood, medium to dark brown in colour, perfect for handcrafted joinery projects such as skirting and architraves. You'll also find Sapele used in doors and windows. Kiln drying timber delivers a uniform product with consistent moisture levels. Once inside the kiln, temperature, humidity, and airflow are carefully controlled to quickly reduce the moisture content of the timber to its optimum level on a species-by-species basis, avoiding moisture-related problems like warping and buckling. You can typically expect to find fewer defects in kiln dried timber, making African Sapele an ideal hardwood option for projects where appearances count, such as windows, doors, furniture and flooring.
