Western Red Cedar Woodgrain Aluminium Cladding

The Western Red Cedar woodgrain finish on woodgrain aluminium cladding: rich reddish-brown with soft, straight grain - the warmth of timber, none of the upkeep.

Western Red Cedar is the classic architectural softwood look - rich reddish-brown with soft, straight grain. On woodgrain aluminium cladding, that grain is sublimated into a baked architectural powder coat over marine-grade aluminium, so you get the look of Western Red Cedar timber with none of the oiling, warping, splitting or rot.

Run across a whole wall or facade, this finish carries its grain over the full elevation - the character you would chase with solid hardwood boards, without the rot, the repainting or the combustibility worry on the external skin.

The timeless architectural timber, reimagined in aluminium. Western Red Cedar's warm red-brown depth flatters battens and feature walls without the splitting and fading of the real thing. As woodgrain aluminium cladding, it carries that character while staying non-combustible, UV-stable and dimensionally stable - the practical way to keep a Western Red Cedar look on a project that has to last.

Where Western Red Cedar works best as cladding

The Western Red Cedar finish suits architectural battens, feature walls and entries. As cladding specifically, it is well placed on:

  • External wall cladding and feature facades
  • Entry statements, soffits and eaves linings
  • Fences, gates and privacy walls
  • Carports, garages and outdoor rooms
  • Commercial shopfronts and fitouts
  • Balcony and balustrade infill
