Alaskan Yellow Cedar is specialty softwood that is distinctly different from other cedars in color, strength and hardness. Its yellow color, extreme strength and dimensional stability have made Alaskan Yellow Cedar a favorite for exterior applications, but it has many interior uses as well. Products manufactured from Alaskan Yellow Cedar include posts, timbers, bridge decking, ship lumber, doors, windows and pattern stock. Because Alaskan Yellow Cedar is hard, resistant to wear and does not splinter easily, it also makes excellent flooring and has been used for years as stadium seating in outdoor sports facilities. Finally, it is an excellent choice for exterior patio decks.
