Why choose Western Red Cedar? - It is beautiful - has rich grain & vibrant colour
- It is strong - Western red cedar has excellent dimensional stability and endurance. It lays flat, stays straight and is less likely to twist and crack like other wood products.
- It is long lasting - The supremacy of western red cedar as an all-weather building material is entirely natural. It contains natural oils that act as preservatives to help the wood resist insects and decay. Properly finished and maintained, western red cedar will age gracefully and last for many years.
- It is non-toxic - It is safe for all uses and requires no chemical treatment unless the wood is in direct contact with the ground, in which case a protective sealant will protect it against moisture.
- It is aromatic - Western red cedar is probably best known for its distinctive aroma. Over time, the wood remains subtly aromatic and the characteristic fragrance adds another dimension to its universal appeal.
