Shou Sugi Ban: Charred Timber Cladding
Shou Sugi Ban charred timber cladding brings an elegant, timeless aesthetic to any project. Also known as Yakisugi or Japanese burnt timber cladding, Shou Sugi Ban is a traditional Japanese method of charring timber with fire. The process results in a black carbon layer on the timber boards which protects the material and reduces its maintenance requirements. Shou Sugi Ban is machined to the same profile as our Trendplank T&G Timber Cladding and will fit all Trendplank Corner Trims and End Stops.
At Mortlock Timber, our Shou Sugi Ban cladding finish is manufactured in-house so that we can control the quality and consistency to the highest standard. Over three years we have been developing and perfecting our Shou Sugi Ban process to bring you a beautiful product with a consistent finish every time.

Installation
End Matching is applied to the ends of the boards so that they can be joined off stud. End matching is a tongue and groove profile that improves water proofing and eliminates the need to measure and trim the ends of the boards. This will enable you to save time and minimise waste during installation. Our burnt timber cladding can be installed as vertical or horizontal wall cladding in a timber frame construction or masonry construction. Cladding will require pre-drilling and screw fixing through the tongue. The next board groove should cover the screw in the previous board.
