Okoume, aucoumea klaineana, is a fast-growing, plantation-grown tropical hardwood. Okoume’s clear, beautifully-figured grain has a golden, honey-colored hue beneath epoxy and varnish, while its low density yields ultra-lightweight hulls. okoume marine grade plywood is manufactured in Europe’s finest mills to specs exceeding British Standard 1088 and Lloyd’s of London standards.
