Western Red Cedar is the perfect choice for all your customers’ exterior applications. Cedar is more than just beautiful; its unique characteristics make it durable as well.
- Western Red Cedar contains natural oils that act as a preservative for resistance to insect attack and decay… without chemicals!
- Its dimensional stability allows the wood to lay flat and stay straight, adding to the holding power of fasteners and creating a firm base for many types of paints and stains.
- The unique cell structure of cedar provides a high insulation value keeping your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
