Vulcan Screening
Engineered from thermally modified plantation timber with a unique vertical grain, Abodo Vulcan Screening is a high performance natural exterior timber.
Used to beautiful effect on the iconic Cardrona Cabin, Abodo Vulcan Screening is a high performance product designed to weather gracefully in harsh environments.
Derived from FSC® certified local plantation forests, this is an excellent renewable alternative to cedar for use in rainscreen, batten, louvre and beam applications.
Available in a number of profiles and sizes, Vulcan Screening can be used to add a stylish timber element to any project, from a more traditional extension or renovation to a contemporary design.
With Abodo’s patented vertical grain orientation paired with the rigours of the thermal modification process, Vulcan Screening is a robust material that won’t warp or cup in extreme temperatures.
Customisable in a range of bandsawn finishes for a unique look and feel, Vulcan Screening results in clean, modern lines and a finish that will turn heads.
Finish + Colour
Choose brushed or bandsawn finishes, to customise your design. Brushed brings additional texture.
* Colour variation may occur due to variation in the natural substrate. Colour may change/fade as part of the weathering process.
