Iroko (Milicia excelsa) is a large, tropical hardwood tree native to West Africa. Often referred to as “African teak,” Iroko is renowned for its durability, strength, and resistance to decay, making it highly valued in the timber industry. The wood of the Iroko tree is used in the production of furniture, flooring, cabinetry, and other high-end woodworking products. Its distinctive yellow-brown color darkens over time, giving it an elegant and rich appearance.
