Vulcan Joinery - Vertical Grain
Abodo Vulcan® Shingles are created using Vulcan timber, resulting in a product with all the beauty, durability and stability of this thermally modified eco-timber.
Delivering all the charm of yesteryear and updated for modern applications, Abodo Vulcan® Shingles are a durable, high-end architectural finish for roofs, walls and gable ends.
Durability is furthered by a low-VOC, water-based OPX preservative treatment that guards against mould and insects. The beautiful toasty brown colour will silver off with exposure to weather if left uncoated.
It is also lightweight, making it easy to install and maintain. The beautiful homogenous brown colour will silver off with exposure to weather if left uncoated. Add to this the verified carbon storage status of Vulcan timber, which is created from FSC® certified New Zealand Radiata Pine, and these timber shingles are sure to tick many boxes for architects, designers and homeowners.
Wherever possible, Vulcan Shingles are created using offcuts or short lengths from the manufacture of other Vulcan timber products, therefore minimising wastage and making the best use of our natural resources.

Heat tempered timber
Vulcan timbers are treated with heat and steam rather than chemicals, which means the product is ‘pre-shrunk’ and will be more stable in service.
Superior Thermal Conductivity
With an excellent thermal conductivity rating of ~0.095 W/(mK) (EN12667), Vulcan windows and doors help to deliver warm and healthy homes.
Natural Durability
This product is naturally durable and contains no wood preservatives. Just as nature intended. Durability Class 2 (AS5204-2005).
Natural Stability
Vulcan Joinery is manufactured with a vertical grain orientation, which means the timber has great stability, even in harsh conditions.

Can you provide custom sizes or cuts based on specific project requirements?
This may be possible subject to availability and minimum order quantities. Please enquire with us first.
Where can I buy Vulcan Joinery timber?
Contact your local timber joinery manufacturer and request Abodo Vulcan timber for your project. Alternatively contact your local timber merchant or talk to us directly.
What finish is Vulcan Joinery timber supplied in?
The timber is supplied in rough sawn format for use by manufacturers. Machining and finishing is completed by third party manufacturers.
Is Vulcan Joinery timber best suited to a coating or painted finish?
Vulcan timber accepts most coatings well. Vulcan laminated Vertical Grain can be used for paint or stain finish although paint is recommended in highly exposed exterior applications. We recommend verifying compatibility with the coating manufacturer and testing prior to specification or application in all cases.
