Description
These 2.4m 121mm x 19mm Iroko Loglap cladding boards deliver a bold, traditional timber look combined with the performance of a premium African hardwood. Iroko is naturally rich in oils and highly resistant to rot and insect attack, making it an excellent choice for external use without the need for pressure treatment.
The loglap profile is designed to replicate the visual effect of stacked logs, adding strong texture and depth to walls and façades. With a 98mm face coverage, these boards provide excellent weather protection through their overlapping design while retaining a distinctive architectural appearance.
Freshly machined Iroko shows beautiful golden to medium brown tones, which naturally evolve into a refined silver-grey over time. To preserve the original colour and slow the weathering process, we recommend applying a quality wood oil or OSMO stain, which also helps protect against UV exposure, moisture and surface cracking.
Ideal for garden buildings, sheds, house façades, extensions and feature walls, Iroko Loglap is the perfect choice when you want something that looks rich, natural and built to last.

Help with my new garage roof!
Trade Warehouse could not have been more helpful. They very patiently guided a roofing newbie through all of the stuff I would need to do the job and provided helpful tips along the way. It's rare to find a company offering such a fantastic level of customer service as standard. I would highly recommend them and will certainly use them again.

Garden Storage
My contractor (Charlie Keep) recommended you to me so I could order the materials online for delivery direct to my home. These were for a project to construct a Garden Storage Area. The materials were perfect and the whole process was simple and slick with materials delivered on time and very well packaged. Charlie has since completed the project & I am very happy with the outcome.
