Western red cedar is naturally resistant to decay and insect damage, so no chemical treatment is required. Its superior durability, aesthetic beauty, and dimensional stability make it an excellent choice for exterior applications in residential or commercial projects. Western red cedar wood is fairly lightweight, moderately soft, and low in strength, it produces thujaplicin, a defense mechanism against rot and fungus. This natural fungicide enables even a dead tree to be a valuable part of the forest. Properly finished, western red cedar products will last for decades, even in harsh environments.
