Cedar wood is perhaps one of the most storied woods in history. Cedar’s amazing properties are the reason why it’s prevailed for centuries. During a recent renovation in Newport, RI the contractor needed aromatic cedar to maintain the historical accuracy of the structure. AdvantageLumber.com supplied him with high-quality aromatic cedar to provide the structural support needed.
Most cedar, but aromatic in particular, has a strong scent that is pleasant to us, but insects detest it. The naturally occurring odor comes from the evaporation of the wood’s oils. If the smell fades, a light sanding will bring it back. It’s no wonder many cabinets are lined with aromatic cedar.
Aside from the beautiful aroma, aromatic cedar heartwood is very resistant to rot and requires no additional chemical treatments. Natural durability is the reason there are so many uses for it besides the common cabinet and chest lining.
- Children’s play structures
