Western Red Cedar is
extremely light in weight relative to its size and
has a natural oil which serves to protect it from
natural decay thus acting similar to pressure
treated wood. Its wide array of beautiful colors
appeal to the eye and its natural ordour serves as
a repellent to both insects and moths.
Our
suppliers' sorting allow various markets to access
products designed to yield specific lumber
products manufactured for different uses. Each
sort has specifications designed to meet certain
requirements for optimal lumber output. This is
why the log graders emphasize quality control as
an essential component for producing products of
high quality standards.
We can supply 4
different sorts of Western Red Cedar. Each sort
has its own set of criteria, definitions, and
sample pictures to illustrate each product. The
pictures above show the quality and grading of the
4 types of cedar logs we offer - from the highest
to the lowest grade as shown in the pictures;
extreme left being highest grade and the 4th
picture (extreme right) being of lowest
grade.
