| Treatment | Untreated, Western Red Cedar is naturally rot resistant. While untreated Western Red Cedar is naturally resistant to rot, we highly recommend using OSMO stain to preserve its colour and protect against weathering, cracking, and expansion. Staining enhances the cedar’s durability, ensuring it maintains its appearance and integrity over time. |

Western Red Cedar Tongue and Groove (T&G) cladding is a reliable choice for exterior applications, combining natural beauty with long-lasting performance. Sourced from FSC-certified sustainable forests, this timber offers exceptional dimensional stability, resisting warping, shrinking, and swelling even in demanding outdoor environments.
Naturally durable, Western Red Cedar is highly resistant to rot, decay, and insect damage, making it ideal for exposed external settings. Its fine, straight grain and warm reddish-brown tones lend a timeless appeal to a variety of architectural styles. When left untreated, it develops a sophisticated silvery-grey patina over time, while stains and oils can be used to preserve its original color.
