CEMBRIT’S Eastern Promise
Eastern White cedar shingles (a proven alternative to Western Red
Cedar) are an excellent contemporary building material. They are
notable for their sustainable qualities and are particularly suited
for specification in coastal and rural areas, where they are
frequently used on stables, beach huts, chalets, garden buildings
and sheds. Cembrit has stock across depots nationwide with a next
day delivery service.
Eastern White cedar (also known as Northern White cedar) is a
species native to north eastern America. It has long been prized for
its easy workability, durability and abundance and is used in
interior applications including furniture, as well as exterior
applications such as roofing, cladding, window frames and decking.
The wood is stable, finely textured without surface splintering, and
offers natural resistance to fungal, insect and moisture decay.
Although low in density and lightweight, cedar has excellent
insulating properties.
Cembrit’s Eastern White cedar shingles offer a fine, even grain, low
density and are light weight and robust, making them very easy to
work with. As well as being attractive, Cedar shingles have a
naturally occurring preservative, providing resistance to fungal,
insect and moisture decay. These properties mean that cedar shingles
can be used without the need for chemical treatment.
Shingles are either pale brown (untreated) or green (treated),
although after installation both versions will weather to an
attractive silver grey. Treated shingles have a much longer lifespan
of 50-60 years (sometimes up to 80!) whereas untreated shingles can
be expected to last 25-30 years.
Available for nationwide delivery from their five regional depots,
Cembrit has a great deal of experience in supplying this product.
Advice and expertise is readily available from the company to ensure
the correct product is specified for the application. In fact,
Cembrit only supplies A grade (blue label) to ensure that only the
most durable shingles are offered. For an improved service life
customers can also choose ACQ treated shingles.
It is important that roof details and codes of practice are followed
in order to install a trouble free roof. Cembrit offer specially
designed ridge outlet vents (in combination with eaves ventilation)
so that designers and installers can comply with the codes of
practice. This is particularly important in the case of cedar
shingles. If the underside of the shingles are exposed to
condensation dampness due to inadequate or non existent ventilation,
not only can differential evaporation cause the shingles to “lift”
but the presence of damp on the underside will reduce the working
life of the shingles. The Cembrit ridge vent allows rapid
ventilation/drying without the use of bulky ridge vent terminals.
Cembrit’s complete accessory package includes pre-fabricated
ridge/hip cappings to make the roofing work progress smoothly and
quickly.
