Description
Imported Canadian Douglas Fir is a great species to work with for timber cladding, with small dimensional movement and offering moderate durability.
Machined to a wide variety of profiles for both horizontal and vertical timber cladding installations.
- A well defined grain makes for an appealing timber cladding board.
- Left uncoated Canadian Douglas Fir will naturally weather down to a silver/ grey colour.
- Accepts stains and paints well if there is a desire to prolong a colour or alter the appearance.
- Can be fire treated to meet EuroClass B with pressure impregnation.
- PEFC certified.
