These 4mEuropean Larch Wood Cladding 121mm x 19mm Loglap Boards offer a classic, rustic appearance combined with outstanding durability for exterior timber projects. Manufactured from slow-grown Northern European Larch, this naturally robust softwood delivers excellent resistance to decay, making it ideal for outdoor environments without the need for chemical treatment.
The 121mm x 19mm loglap profile is designed to replicate the look of traditional log walls, creating depth, character and strong visual appeal. With 98mm face coverage, these boards provide secure overlap and excellent weather protection, helping to shield structures from wind and rain while maintaining a traditional timber aesthetic.
Supplied untreated, European Larch naturally ages from warm golden-brown tones to an attractive silver-grey patina. To maintain its original colour and extend its lifespan, we recommend applying a high-quality OSMO stain, which helps protect against UV damage, moisture, cracking and timber movement.
Each board is precision-machined and planed smooth for ease of installation and a consistent, professional finish.
