Good news. Abodo has achieved CodeMark certification for its range of naturally durable weatherboard cladding products.
Natural wood has long been the discerning choice for exterior cladding finishes, but preservative chemicals have normally been required to bring locally grown cladding up to New Zealand Building Code compliance.
Not any more. Vulcan and Tundra are both beautiful, locally grown, renewable weatherboard cladding options:
Vulcan Cladding
Created from thermally modified, vertical grain Radiata Pine. Vulcan Cladding is the top shelf in beautiful, stable, chemical free cladding.
Tundra Cladding
Created from naturally durable Heart Douglas Fir. Tundra Cladding is stable and naturally durable, with a classic rustic appearance. Push greenwash aside and make a proper “eco” choice.
If these breakthroughs aren’t enough to get you excited, Abodo also have CodeMark for “Hector”: a concealed fix profile.
Hector profile cladding allows you to fix your cladding in vertical or horizontal without visible fixings. Banish those nasty nail heads from the outside of your house.
Abodo® Vulcan is now available through Weaverbird Wood Co, giving California’s architecture and design community a new way specify high-performance timber.
A new distributor in Abodo’s North American Architectural partner network.
Responding to customer demand for greater fixing depth, builders will get an extra 10mm where they need it most. Replacing the 65mm, the new 75mm Cladding Screw is arriving in September 2026.
Abodo introduces a breakthrough that reshapes what’s possible in timber design: Vaaro Fire, an ultra durable, fire compliant timber* - all from one trusted manufacturer.
