Western Red Cedar Cladding 18 X 144mm BB2 Shiplap 2.44m Length
Western Red Cedar (sourced mainly from Western Canada) is probably the most popular timber used for external cladding.
It is durable, versatile, easy to use and requires little maintenance. If left untreated, over time, it weathers to a beautiful silver-grey colour. Its low density (330-390kg per m3) confirms it as one of the lightest durable softwoods available, making it easy to handle and to work with (to saw, cut, machine and fix).
Good thermal and acoustic characteristics. It has excellent dimensional strength and is class 2 ‘durable’. It takes most stains, colours and finishes well (please ask for details) and is the ideal choice for fast-track cladding projects.
