Cedar leaders - Herman Pacific cedar cladding
Herman PacificWith thousands of metres of timber to coat, Herman Pacific, manufacturers and suppliers of speciality timber products to New Zealand for over 25 years, including over 80% of New Zealand's cedar consumption, approached Resene Paints to supply a waterborne woodstain for their Machinecoat line.

Machinecoat NZ Ltd is an allied company of Herman Pacific specialising in the pre-finish factory contract coating of timber cladding. Cedar cladding, oil stained, dried and packed for delivery direct to the building site minimises on-site labour.

Working in collaboration with Herman Pacific, Resene modified its Waterborne Woodsman oil penetrating stain to maximise film thickness and dry time. The modified formulation has reduced the lead-time from application to dry from 3 days to 2 hours.

Western Red Cedar is one of the world's premier commercial timber species, sought after for its natural durability, lightweight, attractive appearance and stability. Drying to a low sheen finish, Waterborne Woodsman enhances Western Red Cedar's natural colour and grain, while imparting fungicidal and UV protection and water repellancy.

Customers can choose from the standard Waterborne Woodsman colour range or create their own colour using the Resene custom matching service.

The finished product is easily recoatable when required using standard Waterborne Woodsman and has the Environmental Choice stamp of approval.
