Barnwood planks

Barnwood: the former facade cladding of old barns and farms in the Alps. It is reclaimed wood that is ready for a second life as wall cladding, panelling, cladding or furniture wood. The material is known for its brown-grey colour. It is available in various lengths up to 5 meters.

What is the origin of barnwood planks?

The wood has served for years as facade cladding on old buildings such as farms and barns high up in the mountains. The area’s continental climate has preserved the wood well. The cold winters and dry summers have prevented rot and, as a result, the wood is recycable with ease.

The characteristic grooves on the old planks are the result of the exposure to the sunlight throughout the years.
When the barns are being demolished, the wood is often preserved and sold to companies that trade historic building materials. After inspecting the reclaimed wood for its quality, we sort it by size and appearance.
