Western Red Cedar Wood Veneer - Premium Grade
Clear Western Red Cedar (Thuja plicata) | Uniform Color & Consistent Grain
Western Red Cedar is celebrated globally for its stunning aesthetic and legendary durability. Naturally resistant to both weather and insects, this species is the premier choice for woodworkers crafting fine furniture, linen chests, high-end humidors, musical instruments, and marine interiors.
Our Premium Western Red wood veneer sheets are specifically selected for their consistency. This grade features a very uniform, reddish-brown color range and tight, vertical grain lines. This "Clear" grade is the ideal architectural choice for large-scale projects that require a standardized, repeatable look across multiple panels.
The Characteristics of Western Red Cedar
Grown along the Pacific coast of North America—stretching from Alaska to Northern California—and throughout the Rocky Mountains, Western Red Cedar offers a warm color palette. While the raw wood ranges from pinkish-red to deep reddish-brown, it is known to age beautifully into a sophisticated silver-gray if left unfinished and exposed to light.
Why Choose Our Premium Red Cedar?
-
Consistent Aesthetics: Uniform color and vertical grain for a seamless, professional finish.
-
Natural Durability: Inherent resistance to decay makes it a long-lasting choice for varied environments.
-
Flexible Sizing: Stocked in 4’x8’ and 4’x10’ sheets to suit architectural millwork and custom cabinetry.
-
Backer Versatility: Available with 10 mil paper, 22.2 mil Bubble-Free Veneer (BFV), and Peel and Stick (PSA) adhesive backing.
Application Advice
Because of its uniform grain, Western Red Cedar is a favorite for mid-century modern furniture designs and sleek, contemporary wall paneling. When finishing, this species accepts stains well, but many professionals prefer a clear topcoat to highlight the natural warmth and "glow" of the reddish-brown fibers.
