Now in its tenth year, Abodo’s Vulcan timber cladding range has expanded. The original product, now known as Vulcan Cladding – Architectural Series, has been joined by Vulcan Cladding – Standard Series.

The difference between the two options lies in the grade of timber used for each product, and this means the new Standard Series is available at a more accessible price and with a light natural character to its appearance. This light natural character includes some knots, resin pockets and other natural features present along with some clear lengths.

“Standard Series was created for a number of reasons. Now, we’re able to make better use of the log feedstock, essentially putting a different grade of timber to much better use. And this means we can offer high performance, sustainably manufactured timber cladding to more people.” – Sarah Buckley, Abodo’s National Sales and Specification Manager.

Builders will notice the same light, stable, high-performance properties in the Standard Series. Both the Architectural and Standard series are made from the same Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) certified, New Zealand grown, rapidly renewable Radiata. Both are thermally modified and engineered with Abodo’s patented vertical grain for enhanced performance.

So how are they different?

In addition to the clear vs light character aesthetic, the Architectural Series is available in a wider range of profiles and colours compared to the Standard Series. Choose from our nine Protector coating colours in both ranges – or if you’re looking for Sioo:x or Iron Vitriol, the Architectural Series is for you.
