Why choose Red Cedar for your wood cladding ?

red cedar wood species

A naturally durable and resistant material

Red Cedar, whose botanical name is Thuya plicata, is a premium wood species from North America, ideal for cladding that combines aesthetics, longevity and performance. Its unique grain and warm hues, from orange-brown to golden, add a natural, refined touch to any facade.
At Sivalbp, we select only Clear 2 quality western red cedar, an exceptional species virtually free of knots and irregularities, for a consistent, high-end visual appearance.

  • Red cedar: naturally weather-resistant

    Thanks to its natural oils, western red cedar is rot-proof and offers optimum protection against fungi, wood-eating insects and external aggression. Adapted to humid and extreme climates, it guarantees exceptional durability for up to 50 years, without the need for special treatment.

  • Red Cedar: harmonious, maintenance-free aging

    Over time, red cedar naturally evolves to a uniform silver-gray color, without altering its mechanical performance. No treatment is required, unless you wish to preserve its original color.

  • Red cedar: a lightweight wood that's easy to work with

    Red cedar is a naturally lightweight wood, making it easy to handle and install on site. Its homogeneous structure enables precise cutting and excellent fastener retention, making installation fast and efficient. Ideal for cladding, it is suitable for all types of project, whether new or renovation.
