150mm x 25mm Imported Western Red Cedar Shiplap Cladding

150mm x 25mm Imported Western Red Cedar Shiplap Cladding, Profile Reference PFC008

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.

Appearance: Canadian western red cedar features beautiful red, pink and brown tones making it a popular cladding choice on aesthetics alone. It can be left untreated to achieve a classic silver tone.

Performance: Canadian western red cedar’s durability is outstanding, being extremely resistant to insect attack, rot and decay, as well as resistant to splitting and movement once installed. Extremely stable with a very low shrinkage factor, western red cedar is resistant to warping and twisting.

Longevity: Can achieve a service life in excess of 60 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.
