UK/ Homegrown Western Red Cedar Timber Cladding
QA Certificate
Certificate type
UK/ Homegrown Western Red Cedar Timber Cladding.
Description
The UK/ Homegrown counterpart is faster grown, therefore is only a moderately Durable softwood.
Homegrown Cedar is significantly cheaper over the Western Canadian alternative and from a carbon foot print perspective, is worth considering as the product does not have to travel half way round the world to our country.
The timber will weather to a silver grey over time if not coated, ideal for that rustic finish with the characteristic knots present in the species.
Features and benefits:
- FSC Certified, sustainably sourced timber.
- Grown within the United Kingdom.
- All timber is sourced and machined to CE Quality Grading Requirements.
- Faster grown than imported species, large and frequent knots along the length.
This species is only moderately durable and should be high pressure treated with NORclad Brunnea™ or NORclad Lite™ to give the species a 30 year warranty against rot and fungal decay out of ground contact (UC3) and expected 50 year service life.
Typical end uses:
Timber cladding, Brise Soleil.
Standards:
Quality of timber (Exposed Surfaces): To EN 14915 – NORclad Timber Cladding is produced in accordance with factory production control for selection, grading, machining and preservative treatment of solid wood cladding.
