A NATURAL GREEN BUILDING MATERIAL
Natural durability, stability and low density make western red cedar a perfect material for landscape design features.
Responsibly and sustainably harvested in the forests of British Columbia, Canada, western red cedar is highly regarded as a green building material.
It is sought after for use in windows, doors, blinds and shutters, because of its natural durability, stability and low density. The same qualities make it equally suitable of use in landscape design features such as pergolas, gazebos and even decks. Knotty grades are also an excellent cladding option for designers seeking a unique appearance that blends seamlessly into the surrounding environment.
