Brand Feature

Real Cedar is a brand of Western Red Cedar, the ideal sustainable species for decking. This particular species is resistant to decay, rot, and insects making it a durable, high-quality option that will last decades. Optimal for outdoor use, it can be used for custom furniture, decking, trellises, siding and more. Real Cedar is pitch and resin-free, so it easily takes stains, oils, paints and others. Left completely untreated, it will grey over time, delivering a stunning silvery patina, creating an organic yet luxe look.
