Finish Detail - Unoiled:
Sugi is often left unoiled in clean interior applications, or in exterior applications where a patina is desired. It can also be coated by the customer with standard tradecraft before or after installation. Leaving the wood unoiled in exterior applications allows it to weather naturally, according to the local climate.
Sugi cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) is indigenous to Japan. It is used primarily for construction lumber due to its high rigidity and quick drying nature. We specialize in the Hachiro variety, used specifically for siding in western Japan.
Our Sugi products are milled and graded for maximum durability in exterior applications as well as to showcase the inherent beauty of the natural wood grain.
