Individual 5" Sawmill Shingles Ageless Beauty
Capture the beauty of natural cedar. Keep the look forever. Throughout its lifespan, the beauty of natural cedar changes with the effects of time and weather. Now, CertainTeed makes it possible to choose the cedar appearance you prefer – freshly sawn or aged – and keep the look you choose forever. Cedar Impressions® Individual 5" Sawmill Shingles are the industry’s first polymer shingles that feature an innovative, blended color throughout.
Beauty and Savings Cedar Impressions Individual 5" Sawmill Shingles retain their beautiful, natural appearance without continual upkeep. This offers an advantage over natural cedar shingles which often require repeated staining or bleach oil treatments to protect them from discoloration. Colors shown throughout this brochure are as accurate as printing methods will permit. Please see product samples before making final selection.
Introducing CedarLife ™ CertainTeed’s innovative CedarLife Color Blends capture the appearance of natural Eastern White Cedar and Western Red Cedar at various life stages. CedarLife enables the selection of unique, random color patterns for one-of-a-kind exterior designs. CedarLife™ Natural Blend FRESHLY CUT WHITE CEDAR Real white cedar will quickly change to a gray color, so the beauty is short lived.
Make time stand still Aging takes time – and time can’t be stopped. These two truths impact the look of natural cedar. As cedar weathers, it will continually change color, moving towards, or away, from the desired color preference. CertainTeed’s CedarLife Color Blends make time stand still, assuring that the shades and patterns chosen today will remain fresh and beautiful for a lifetime.
12 CedarLife Color Blends ™ CedarLife colors honor the natural aging process of cedar by offering four color families – and a progression of shades within each – that replicate the authentic appearance of cedar at different life stages. Natural Blend Driftwood Blend TrueTexture™ Whether individually split with hand tools, or sawn and split in a lumber mill, individual cedar shingles have a texture and character all their own.
Cedar Blend Unique Textures All Cedar Impressions Individual Sawmill Shingles come in 16 unique and authentic sawmill textures, molded from actual cedar shingles. Rustic Blend Color Throughout The beautiful colors and shades of Cedar Impressions shingles are an integral component of the siding. Unlike competitive products that have color applied only on the surface, CertainTeed’s proprietary manufacturing process results in blended color throughout the shingle.
One-of-a-Kind Designs Freedom of design is provided through the ability to select individual shingle shades and mix them into unique, one-of-a-kind designs with random textures, widths and coloration. The custom design of Cedar Impressions Individual 5" Sawmill Shingles offers professionals a compelling design alternative that showcases the craftsman’s touch and assures that no two homes will ever look alike.
