Japanese Cedar (Sugi) 1 Inch Plank
Light, fine-grained, and aromatic: Japanese Cedar (Sugi) 1-inch boards are the pick for interiors, saunas, soffits and detail work where you want cedar's durability without the weight. Available in 1x4 and 1x6, 6 to 12 feet.
Best for
- Sauna walls and ceilings
- Soffits and interior paneling

Sugi's tight knots and pale, even tone give a cleaner, more contemporary look than Western Red Cedar at a friendlier price than clear grades. Want a ready-to-install profile? See our Sugi tongue-and-groove.
