About Western Red Cedar Timber Cladding
Western Red Cedar is the most popular choice in timber cladding. With unparalleled performance and natural beauty, this timber completes any creative vision. The western red heartwood displays stunning variations in colour - from dark brown and pink when fresh, turning to silver-grey when weathered. It's straight grained with a coarse texture and has a very low shrinkage factor. Because it machines and holds a stain well, it is the cladding of choice for many architecturally designed homes. Innovations include 20mm and 45mm cavity batten systems, a range of extruded junction flashings, and the popular INTERSET® recessed window flashing system.
