Kiln dried 'A/B' grade Siberian Larch tongue & groove channel cladding. This product is planed smooth on the exposed face and is machined with stress relief grooves on the reverse to increase stability. Our Siberian Larch cladding is quality controlled by the Federation of European Planing Mills (VEH) to a consistent grading standard.
With 'Tongue & Groove V - Joint' cladding the line between the adjoining pieces has a 'v-shaped' profile that creates a subtle shadow line.
Tongue & Groove profiles are easy to install. The tongue projects from the edge of the board and fits into a groove on the edge of the adjacent board. Once installed the adjoining boards lock together to maintain the clean straight lines of the 'v-joint' profile.
Trade packs are new unopened packs of timber that go in and out of our warehouse with minimal handling. This allows us to keep costs to a minimum which we pass on to you. These packs are sold unopened and unchecked and as with any natural product you should expect a few minor defects on a small percentage of the boards, however these will be minimal if at all and we have factored this into the price.
Siberian Larch is one of the few old growth woods that are being harvested from a sustainable forest. The natural growth rate of Siberian Larch is five times more than the rate at whih it is being harvested. Larch species actually account for 38% of the timber in 2.7 billion acres in size. Since Siberian Larch is highly sustainable, this offers the foundation for a dependable supply. Sicne September 2002, our supplier has been certified according to the criteria of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and their plant was the first operation in the European part of Russia to be FSC certified.
