KAYU®-Batu™ is a Red Balau hardwood species that is extremely suitable for decking and fencing. It is as versatile as it is uniquely beautiful, with a darker reddish-brown color that has been skillfully selected; the result of Kayu’s more than 30 years of extensive worldwide importing of hardwoods for the U.S. and Canada. 100% Natural and 100% Organic,  Batu is a homeowners’ favorite species thanks to its natural warm beauty, long-lasting durability and low maintenance. Its dense cell structure serves as a natural deterrent to decay, insects and mold.
