External Timber Cladding

Australian hardwood exterior cladding is a preferred choice across New Zealand, known for its natural durability and long lifespan—often exceeding 40 years—making it a strong alternative to softer timbers such as cedar. Our range includes most standard profiles, available in both genuine recycled hardwood and FSC-certified new timber. Recycled cladding options are more premium and limited due to being carefully selected to be free of nail holes, ensuring weather-tight performance and compliance. Whether left to naturally silver off or oiled to maintain its rich tones, hardwood cladding provides a timeless, high-performance solution with minimal upkeep.

Renovo burnished

Charred Hardwood Timber Cladding

Renovo Burnished is our charred timber cladding range, inspired by the traditional Japanese technique of Shou Sugi Ban. Using controlled flame, the surface of the timber is carefully charred to create a protective carbon layer, enhancing durability while delivering a distinctive, organic finish that cannot be replicated with paints or stains. This process not only preserves the timber for long-term performance but also reduces ongoing maintenance. Once charred, each board is coated with a high-penetrating oil to further enhance longevity. We recommend an additional coat after installation, providing a maintenance-free finish for a minimum of 10 years. The result is a striking, high-performance cladding solution suited to architectural exteriors seeking both resilience and visual impact.
