Benii – Light-Brushed Japanese Yakisugi Cladding

Benii is genuine Japanese cedar with an elegant, light-brushed Yakisugi finish. Charring the timber, then brushing it back, reveals the warmth and movement of the grain while keeping the resilience of a carbonised surface. A refined option for modern Japanese cladding, indoors and out, with professional specification support Australia-wide. Available in Benii Natural, Benii Clear and Benii Black.

Green Credentials

Genuine Japanese sugi (Cryptomeria japonica) from certified Japanese forests. The Yakisugi charring process is chemical-free: the carbonised surface is the weatherproofing, eliminating synthetic preservatives, biocides and coatings entirely. Carbon-sequestering structural timber, long service life (decades), and naturally biodegradable at end of life.
