Mahoe Home - Auckland, New Zealand

This modern two storey family home was designed with dark colours in mind, so the choice of timber was paramount.

Abodo’s Vulcan Primed Cladding is created from thermally modified New Zealand plantation timber and is factory pre-primed (in paint finish) for optimal coating performance.

Thermal modification uses heat treatment instead of chemicals, which means Vulcan Primed Cladding has enhanced stability and reduced resin content - so is perfect for dark colours.

The choice of two contrasting Resene paint colours (Porter and 1/2 Chicago), along with the contrasting horizontal and vertical cladding, creates an impactful, modern look.

The homeowners love the overall finish of the Vulcan Primed Cladding - especially as they were able to have dark colours, which isn’t always an option with other timber weatherboards.

Builders, Page Construction, found Vulcan Cladding to have an awesome pre-primed finish, which was easy to cut and install.
