Green (wet) British grown larch sawn to traditional sections for horizontal or vertical external cladding.
Fresh sawn (wet) British larch cladding sourced locally from well-managed forests. Available GIB certified on request.
British larch cladding is both tough and durable, but relatively low cost making it ideal for projects with limited budget.
British larch is only available with a sawn finish and is therefore best suited to projects where a rustic appearance is desired such as agricultural or barn conversions. It is available in sawn profiles only and can be installed both horizontally and vertically. Compliant with BS EN 14915 and BS 8605-1. Grown in England and Wales.
