Achieve a sleek, contemporary aesthetic with our premium Dark Black – Charred Larch Cladding Shiplap, manufactured using the traditional Japanese Yakisugi (Shou Sugi Ban) carbonisation method. Sourced from high-character European Larch, each board features a uniform, brushed satin-black finish that highlights the wood’s natural grain texture.

Featuring a modern Shadow Line Shiplap (SL) profile, this 145mm x 4m board creates clean, crisp geometric lines perfect for high-end facades. The protective charred layers offer exceptional defense against wet weather and heavy UV cycles, providing an exceptionally stable, low-maintenance lifecycle where the carbon layer is left to patinate naturally over time, or optionally refreshed periodically with protective oils to preserve its original tone.

Description
Product Details

Achieve a sleek, contemporary aesthetic and long-term durability with our premium Dark Black – Charred Larch Cladding Shiplap, manufactured using the traditional Japanese carbonisation method. Sourced from slow-growing, high-density timber, this cladding is available in premium structural grade European Larch (Larix decidua). Each board undergoes a precise surface-firing and brushing process that cures the outer wood fibers into a beautiful, satin-black textured finish.

Commonly referred to in the commercial trade as Shou Sugi Ban or Yakisugi, this advanced material modification features a classic Shiplap (SL) profile. This design incorporates a clean shadow gap that yields crisp shadow lines, adding exceptional geometric definition to modern home extensions, full facades, and feature walls. Each precision-milled board yields a Gross Area of 0.58 m² and an **effective Net Coverage of 0.52 m²**, ensuring a tight, reliable interlocking fit. The shiplap joint ensures superior weather protection by completely shielding the core wood matrix from driving Irish rain, intense UV exposure, and persistent moisture cycles without fading or degrading.

This sustainable facade solution requires absolutely no oiling, staining, or ongoing chemical upkeep. The protective charred layer acts as a natural shield against rot, fungal decay, and insect attack, making it ideal for contemporary architectural projects requiring long-term structural integrity and a striking, maintenance-free finish.
