150mm x 25mm Imported Thermowood D Shiplap Cladding

Usually fitted horizontally, shiplap cladding is a traditional profile which is creates a weather-tight exterior. An overlap is created when the cladding boards fit together, to provide weather proofing to an exterior façade. Shiplap cladding has a small channel running along side the timber which allows water to run off the building very quickly. Thermowood® is thermally modified softwood which has been heat treated to over 200°C using a completely natural and non-toxic practice. This results in a product which has been especially engineered for cladding applications to achieve enhanced performance, while retaining the beauty of traditional timber.

Appearance:  Thermowood contains minimal knots and has a warm, rich brown colour. If left untreated, Thermowood will weather to a silvery grey, similar to cedar and larch.
Performance: Thermowood is more stable than traditional timber, so it doesn’t bend, twist or warp. With minimal water absorption and less water content, Thermowood is lightweight and very dry in nature which makes it resistant to decay, fungi and insect damage. In addition, being dry gives Thermowood a very smooth finish for precision machining.
Longevity: Expected service life is 30 years (out of ground contact).

This cladding is part of the Premier Claddings range which is produced from top quality timber and beautifully machined in the UK by Premier Forest Products’ in-house workshops. As a natural material, timber is durable and sustainable, with every tree featuring different patterns, grains and knots. This means that your cladding will have a unique character, with an individual look. Shiplap cladding can be installed horizontally or vertically.
