SEMINAR - SUSTAINABLE TIMBER - EXTERNAL CLADDING USES

 

 

Marquee

 

Speaker: John Russell – Managing Director - Russwood Ltd 

 

The seminar will take the format of an illustrated presentation on sustainable timber and its uses as an external cladding material.  It will cover the importance of detailing and grading; highlighting the impact these points have on the natural durability of cladding; and explore the options of coated finishings (i.e. painting and staining).  John will offer a tour of houses on site that include examples of good practice and showcase characteristics of timber.

 

John Russell has developed Russwood into a specialised timber products company. He has over twenty-five years' experience in the industry and is highly knowledgeable, not only on the huge variety of timber available on the market, but also on the characteristics and technical competences applicable to each.
