These Special Buy packs have been created from our end of line 18x94mm and 18x144mm Silva Select Western Red Cedar No. 2 Clear & Better cladding products. Silva Select Contractor + offers a high-quality appearance at a lower price point than the flagship Silva Select Prestige VG range.
Old-growth Western Red Cedar is used to produce Silva Select Contractor +. The raw material is harvested from forests in the coastal regions of British Columbia, Canada, an area, known to yield the finest, dense grained cedar logs.
Aimed at contractors for larger-scale projects, the grading of Silva Select Contractor + is less stringent. Most boards (approximately 85%) meet the grading rules for ‘No. 2 Clear & Better’, with a smaller percentage (approximately 15%) falling into the ‘No. 4 Clear’ grade. For this reason, occasional pieces will exhibit slightly larger knots, knot holes, and other characteristics that would otherwise not be permitted in the ‘No. 2 Clear & Better’ grade.
The Tongue & Groove V-Joint profile can be installed horizontally or vertically. A bevel on both edges of the face creates a neat v-shaped shadow line that accentuates the height or width of any façade, providing a sharp contemporary appearance.
Before purchasing, please read the full product description and technical information in the tabs below.
Western Red Cedar is synonymous with beauty and durability, thanks to its stunning colour palette and expected service life of 60+ years. The raw material used to produce Silva’s No. 2 Clear & Better 85/15 Western Red Cedar cladding is sourced from forests in the coastal regions of British Columbia, Canada – an area known for its high quality, fine-grained old-growth logs.
Western Red Cedar Tongue & Groove V-Joint looks stunning indoors too, creating a feeling of warmth and luxury on accent walls or feature ceilings. Its excellent dimensional stability makes it perfect for high moisture areas such as bathrooms, kitchens, conservatories, swimming pools, and saunas.
