Four species, one factory, one oil. Pick by tone or pick by timber - we ship physical samples either way.
Interior
Charred Wood
Exemplary in every aspect. Charred wood doesn't just offer an exquisite appearance; it also boasts advantages that set it apart from conventional timber. This makes it an ideal choice for interior spaces, particularly in bathrooms and kitchens.
The charring process renders the wood surface water-resistant and exceptionally resilient to decay, making it perfectly suited for high-humidity environments. With its unique blend of aesthetic appeal and practicality, charred wood adds a touch of sophistication and durability to your interior design.

Shou Sugi Ban Interior
Perfect in every way. Charred wood not only looks great, but also comes with the benefits that you usually don't get with regular timber. Since the charring process makes timber surface water resistant, and extremely impervious to decay in high humidity environments, it can be used in any interior space.

Shou Sugi Ban Fence
Not only are you going to stand out from boring old design, but it also makes it exceptionally easy to maintain your fence boards. The Yakisugi charring process changes the chemical composition of the wood, eliminating mould and fungi growth.
