Introducing New Growth ™ Feature Timbers, and a bold new look too.

COMING SOON / New Addition to the Vulcan Cladding Range

Delivering the high level of quality expected from Vulcan timber, this​ extension ​​ ​to the Vulcan Cladding range will bring even more flexibility to your residential projects.

Vulcan Cladding - Standard Series

With all the high-performance properties of today’s Vulcan timber cladding, the 'Standard Series' range​ br​ings a light natural character to the timber‘s appearance – ideal for mid-range builds where premium clear lengths are not always required.

Sourced from the same ethically managed New Zealand forests – and crafted with the same proprietary thermal modification and vertical grain technology as our existing Vulcan Cladding – the new Standard Series is distinguished by its appearance, the selection of colours and profiles, and also its pricing.

Vulcan Standard Series is made from a mix of approximately 50% clear grade timber, ​with the remaining ​boards featuring some knots, resin pockets and natural features.

Additionally, the new Standard Series will be available in a select range of colours and face fixed profiles. This new option also comes in at a lower price compared to the current, premium Vulcan ‘Architectural Series’, making it a great alternative to deliver high performance timber cladding for more budget-conscious builds.

At a glance, here’s what you need to know:

  • Available in Abodo’s nine Protector coating colours
  • Choose from two new profiles, both face fixed
  • Available in Mixed Length Specification only
  • Thermally modified using heat and steam, with no harmful chemicals – for enhanced durability and stability
  • Created with Abodo’s patented vertical grain technology for additional stability and improved weathering
  • New Zealand grown and manufactured, from rapidly renewable Radiata forests
  • Carbon storage - each square metre of 18mm thick Vulcan Cladding (Standard Series) stores 8.875kg of carbon
