Larch: a durable and robust wood for exterior joinery

Canadian larch: natural strength and durability

Canadian larch originates from North America and is known for its dense structure and high resin content. These characteristics provide good natural resistance to weather exposure and make the wood suitable for applications where durability and reliability are essential.

Thanks to its mechanical properties, larch is often used as an alternative to tropical hardwood, without compromising on performance. When applied untreated, the wood weathers evenly over time, resulting in a natural and timeless appearance.

Applications in exterior joinery and façade cladding

Due to its combination of strength and dimensional stability, Canadian larch is frequently used for:

• façade cladding
• garden structures
• exterior joinery
• project‑based applications in residential and non‑residential construction

With proper detailing and installation, larch offers a durable solution for a wide range of outdoor projects, both in residential and professional contexts.

Larch in contemporary wood applications

The renewed focus on wood as a construction material has brought larch back into the spotlight. Architects, contractors and wood professionals value the material for its technical properties as well as its aesthetic potential.

Thanks to its Canadian origin, consistent quality and broad applicability, larch remains a relevant wood species within current developments in the wood and construction sector.
