• DURABLE . . .

    Made of Juniper heartwood and sapwood, Juniper timbers and poles

    are more durable than products made from other wood species. Aromatic

    Juniper offers insect resistant characteristics similar to its Red Cedar cousin but

    lasts more than 30 years—longer than any other untreated western species.

• ROT RESISTANCE . . .

    Juniper is naturally more resistance to decay than Redwood, Western Red Cedar

    or Lodgepole Pine. Western Juniper has been used for decades for fence posts,

    poles, and corrals because it is extremely durable and resistant to rot.

    Nail Withdrawal Strength is the amount of force required to pull a nail from

    the wood. A low nail withdrawal value would indicate that nails may pop up

    easily if the wood shrinks or swells or that nailed joints may be excessively

    weak. Table values for species other than Western Juniper are estimated

    using a formula from the USDA’s Wood Handbook.

• Western Juniper – 197 psi

• Coastal Douglas Fir – 184 psi

• Eastern Red Cedar – 175 psi

• Red Alder – 124 psi

• Ponderosa Pine – 117 psi

• Incense Cedar – 96 psi

    Because it quickly consumes large amounts of water, Juniper threatens

    plant and animal life within native forests and grasslands. Therefore, using

     Juniper timbers and poles helps to not only prevent waste, but also

    preserve vital ecosystems.

    All-natural and non-treated, Juniper timbers and poles are sustainable

    and renewable products that are environmentally safe for all your landscaping

    or agricultural projects.
