Why Love Western Red Cedar? Let Us Count the Ways Wood of Quality is Beautiful, Durable, Versatile, and Easy to Use & Maintain It is a favourite material of architects and builders, but they may not agree on why. With Western Red Cedar, it's difficult to decide which of its many qualities is best. Here's why. Western Red Cedar is beautiful, in both sight and scent. No man- made material can duplicate the depth of Western Red Cedar's natural luster. Its subtle, natural aroma is another hallmark of its universal appeal. It's one of North America's most durable woods. Natural resistance to deterioration has long made Western Red Cedar the premier choice for either interior or exterior home use. Cedar fibres contain natural compounds called thujaplicins that act as natural preservatives, making the wood extremely long- lasting. These compounds also give the wood its distinct aroma. Properly finished, Western Red Cedar will last for decades, even in harsh environments. It lays flat and stays straight. The even grain and relatively consistent density make Western Red Cedar less likely to swell, warp, cup and twist than other soft and hard woods. As a result, it retains a distinguished appearance that lends a mark of quality to any home. Western Red Cedar is easy to use. Low density and consistency make it an ideal wood to cut, saw, nail and glue. Even a handsaw goes through the wood easily. In finishes, Western Red Cedar offers a rainbow of choices. Though rich in extractives that enhance durability, Western Red Cedar is free of the pitch and resin found in other softwoods. That makes it ideal for a wide range of finishes. From lightly toned clear solutions to two-coat solid colours, cedar ranks at the top in its ability to accept and maintain a finish. It's light in weight. Western Red Cedar's large, open cell structure makes it less dense than most other softwoods. This quality makes it easy to move from place to place on the job. It's warm - or cool. Western Red Cedar's low density increases the insulation of a home by transporting less heat through interior wall panelling or exterior wall siding than brick or stone, vinyl or gypsum drywall. Conversely, it helps keep interiors warmer in cold weather. Western Red Cedar's insulation blocks noise. As an interior panelling or exterior siding, the low density of Western Red Cedar makes it an acoustical barrier of much greater quality than most products marketed for those applications. What Western Red Cedar's Qualities Mean in the Home Decking, Pleasing to the senses, naturally durable and stable, Western Red Cedar is a very popular choice for decking material. It stays flat and stable and lasts for decades with easy maintenance. Western Red Cedar decks are firm but resilient, not hard and unyielding. While the wood is ideal for almost all types of finishes, in addition homeowners who prefer a distinctive silver grey colour may allow their decks to age naturally. Specialty uses. Produced in a range of patterns and sizes, Western Red Cedar often appears in fencing, lattice, balustrades, gazebos, pergolas and in decorative accessories. Because it needs minimal treatment, unlike the toxic chemical preservatives used on pressure-treated woods, Western Red Cedar is ideal for use in playground equipment. Wood carvers and other artisans choose it for its beauty and workability. Western Red Cedar - Timeless Quality |
