NATURALLY DURABLE
Western Red Cedar
The cornerstone of Pacific Northwest beauty - natural durability, distinctive appearance, and versatility for outdoor applications.
Western Red Cedar combines natural durability with distinctive beauty, making it the premier choice for siding, decking, and outdoor applications. Its natural resistance to decay and insects, coupled with dimensional stability, makes it ideal for Pacific Northwest projects.
The natural extractives in Western Red Cedar heartwood provide excellent resistance to decay and insect attack. This inherent durability means cedar lumber can be used in outdoor applications without chemical treatment.
