NEWPORT CHANNEL CLADDING

A precision-machined hardwood cladding profile with a dressed finish, engineered for facades where a clean, refined result is the brief. The channel profile creates consistent shadow lines across the face of the building, adding depth and rhythm without relying on surface texture. Available in Blackbutt, Ironbark, and Spotted Gum, BAL29 rated for external use, with groove options across 5mm, 15mm, and centre configurations.

  • BAL29 rated
  • FSC certified
  • Dressed finish
  • Concealed fixing

Timber is a natural material, so some variation in grain and colour is to be expected. Speak to our team to make sure your chosen species suits the project.
Surface Finishes

Dressed

A smooth, planed face. The default for refined interiors and ceilings where the grain should sit quietly.

Coatings

We coat dressed boards with a penetrating oil system that protects timber from the inside, so it won't form a film that can flake or peel. An optional Colourtone is mixed into the oil to set the timber's tone and slow the natural greying that happens outdoors.

Coatings apply to the dressed finish only. Other surface finishes are supplied uncoated.

Final colour shifts with species, number of coats and time outdoors, so request a sample for an accurate match. Colour swatches are indicative only.
Performance & Compliance

Durability, by species

Sustainability

Timber is only a low-carbon choice if it is sourced and used well. Our boards come from Chain-of-custody certified supply, and we make products that are built to last: durable species and quality coatings that keep boards in service for decades rather than years.

Offcuts and short lengths are re-used where a job allows, and sawdust and shavings are recovered rather than landfilled. At end of life, solid timber can be re-milled, repurposed or composted.
