About WRCLA
The Western Red Cedar Lumber Association is a non-profit association representing 27 producers of the finest Western red cedar lumber in the United States and Canada. Ask for our quality products by name: “Real Cedar”!
Why real cedar?
For starters, this durable and highly revered wood is naturally resistant to rot, decay, and insect attack, meaning any project you build with Real Cedar will last longer and require less maintenance. But wait!
There is more:
BEAUTY – Aesthetically, nothing replaces the natural beauty of real cedar. Imbued with decidedly crisp, yet superbly rich tonal properties, Real Cedar can create dynamic outdoor sanctuaries, embolden traditional interior design, and inspire cutting-edge architecture.
VERSATILITY – Western red cedar is pitch and resin free. Which means it is ideal for accepting and maintaining a wide range of beautiful finishes. Real Cedar also offers a wide range of sizes, surface textures and lumber grades. Ergo, whatever the desired effect, Real Cedar has the wood you need.
SUSTAINABILITY – Independent studies prove that when it comes to environmental performance, natural wood is superior to synthetic products in every respect. While other building materials generate greenhouse gases, Western Red Cedar actually removes greenhouse gases from the atmosphere. And unlike brick, cement and composites, Real Cedar is renewable and biodegradable. Plus, Real Cedar comes from the most sustainably managed forests in the world.
