Why Western Red Cedar?
Unmatched Sustainability
The production of cedar produces fewer greenhouse gases, generates less air and water pollution and requires less energy than alternatives and comes from a renewable and sustainable resource.
Thermal Insulation
The thermal properties of Western red cedar are amazing, it actually outperforms brick, concrete and steel as an insulator (WRC has an R-value of 1.35 per inch).
Structural Performance
Western red cedar has a durability rating of '2' in Australia (2x more stable than pine) and is naturally resistant to cupping and warping, even when milled into a fine aerofoil shape used in making plantation shutters.
