We supplied a PEFC-certified NORclad European Redwood in A Grade for this project of 6 high specification cottage in Warrington.
NORclad Brunnea treatment offers a formal warranty on the product for 30 years against rot and fungal decay (out of ground contact).
The product was selected in the NWC2 face fixed profile, which creates a sharp shadow line between each board, on this project a combination of vertical and horizontal installation was used, in various locations around the project.
Alongside this, the combination of dyes and pigment within the treatment provide a good level of colour stability VS traditional untreated species, which would typically weather back to a silver grey relatively fast.
