UFP-Edge Thermally Modified Wood Collection cladding is made to last. Not only does it have great curb appeal, it’s also more durable than natural wood siding because it resists rot. The innovative thermal modification process stabilizes the wood, making it less vulnerable to shrinking and seasonal expansion and contraction.
Our thermally modified boards come in a variety of on-trend pre-stained colors. The tongue and groove profiled planks can be installed on both interior and exterior siding, wall and ceiling applications. Our finishing process highlights the natural and random variation of the wood grain. These variations help provide a unique finish for each board.
Despite its name, Spanish cedar is not only a hardwood (and therefore not a Cedar), it is also not Spanish. Spanish cedar actually comes from the meliaceae family, along with mahogany. Spanish cedar is similar to genuine mahogany in its beautiful coloration, attractive grain pattern and great workability.
Spanish cedar grain is usually quite straight and works well with both hand and power tools. Spanish cedar is also known as "cigar-box cedar", as this was one of its traditional uses. The wood’s natural aroma repels insects, and the high resin count makes it very weather and rot resistant. Due to its low density, the lumber is quite lightweight, which makes this wood highly sought after as a high quality exterior grade species.
