Botanical Name: Thuja plicata
Western Red Cedar is one of North America's great renewable resources.
Slow grown and naturally durable, Cedar has one of the longest life spans of any North American softwood. It can produce long lengths of clear timber with true straight grain, it is free from pitch and has natural resistance to decay. Its low density gives an excellent insulation value superior to most species.
Lightweight, easy to work with, easy to finish, easy to stain, possessing outstaning dimensional stability, Western Red Cedar is the perfect material for exterior cladding applications.
Western Red Cedar is PEFC certified.
