Traditionally Inspired, American Made
Pioneer Millworks Shou Sugi Ban is our dramatic take on the centuries old tradition of Yakisugi, charred wood, or burned siding -- but made right here in the United States at our employee-owned mill in Oregon. Protecting quality, American jobs, supply chain, and timelines.
Textured Black
For a traditional Shou Sugi Ban look, with an iridescent black choose from our Deep Char options. With our Deep Char finishes the wood burned deep leaving an "alligator" texture that will wear over time and with exposure to the elements reveal the wood beneath.
To add longevity to this specific aesthetic we apply a black exterior finish on top of the alligator char. You can maintain this finish over time, or let the siding naturally weather embracing the Japanese wabi sabi or an aesthetic that appreciates the beauty of nature that is "imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete".
