Product: AquaFir™ Shale Natural Wood Siding

Telluride, Colorado- originally founded as a mining town in 1875 named Columbia, but confused with a California town by the same name, was renamed Telluride in 1887 after the gold telluride minerals found in other parts of Colorado. This old, beautiful mining town with some of the most rugged terrain and weather in the Western United States is a classic example of the fearlessness and drive of the Western pioneers. Honoring its Western heritage and natural beauty, much of the new construction in Colorado has called on Montana Timber Products’ various rustic natural wood siding solutions. This build utilizes a combination of stone, made-to-rust steel, and AquaFir™, Wire Brushed, Shiplap natural wood siding; all in a varying degree of earth tones to blend with the natural landscape.

Montana Timber Products offers many different natural reclaimed barn wood alternative and authentic reclaimed barn wood siding solutions. One of the advantages of Montana Timber Products is the customization options of all of the products. Each product is milled to order with a profile, texture, color, and style of your choice. The Shiplap and Channel Rustic (Shiplap with a reveal) profiles are popular choices that have both a utility and aesthetic purpose.

The Montana Timber Products AquaFir™ product line featured in this project is a great solution to bridge the gap between mountain rustic and mountain contemporary architectural design. The Shiplap profile and Wire Brush texture contribute greatly to this natural reclaimed barn wood alternative siding solution. Similar to the multi-chromatic ranchwood™ product line, the AquaFir™ line offers a more subtle mono-chromatic finish, resulting in a fresh, slightly less rustic, contemporary beauty.

Whether you are looking for siding, beams, flooring, or interior accents, Montana Timber Products offers a solution for your rustic needs. All Montana Timber Products’ prefinished wood siding utilizes Seal-Once, a 100% NO VOC waterproofer with a 10 year limited warranty against water ingress.

Product: Corral Board Silver Patina Authentic Reclaimed Barn Wood

This week’s featured project takes us to Minnesota, one of the spectacular beauties of the Midwest. In recent years there has been a trend of upcycling used shipping containers as space efficient homes. The surplus of imports over exports utilizing shipping containers in the United States has caused a surplus in empty shipping containers. Surprisingly, the cost and environmental impact of shipping these empty shipping containers back over seas outweighs the production of new ones. Innovative people are upcycling these surplus, structurally sound shipping containers into alternative, sustainable, space efficient homes. The idea of upcycling is based on the principle of utilizing available non-virgin materials. The use of authentic reclaimed barn wood lives on the same principle of upcycling available materials before creating new ones. Montana Timber Products’ Corral Board authentic reclaimed barn wood is a great way to bring a piece of Western history to your home while lending a helping hand to Mother Nature.

The photo below is a great representation of the beauty of Silver Patina reclaimed Corral Board natural wood siding. Silver Patina Corral Board gets its beauty from Mother Nature and nothing more. Corral Board‘s exposure to decades of harsh elements creates strong wood that is free of stress and has an extremely low moisture content, making it a reliable, long lasting siding material.

Our product, Corral Board, is an authentic reclaimed wood product that encompasses the history of the West. Weathered from decades of prairie winds, sun, and precipitation, it is left with a silver patina finish, bands of moss, and authentic fastener holes. The random, mixed Band Sawn and Circle Sawn textures found in this wood is another testament to its rustic authenticity. Whether used for siding, trim, or paneling, Corral Board will bring an authentic beauty to your home. We offer this product in 1×4-1×12, 2×4-2×12, random length 4′-20′. The species is Douglas Fir and Pine.
