Our synthetic wood shakes combine the elegance of heavy hand-split cedar with modern polyurethane technology. Every CEDUR roof delivers protection, durability, and low maintenance for homeowners, architects, and contractors alike.
The Most Natural Cedar Appearance
CEDUR has taken every opportunity available to make our shakes as realistic and rustic as possible.
Every shake is made to endure beautifully. After installation, each roof gently shifts in tone as it is exposed to the sun – developing a rich, weathered-wood hue within 90 days. This natural process gives every home the organic warmth and timeless character of cedar that lasts for decades.
Every CEDUR shake is solid – not cavity-backed– and features the thick, ¾” hand-split butt end that gives real cedar its signature depth.
- Molded from 50+ unique natural cedar molds for unmatched realism
- Randomized daily for authentic, one-of-a-kind variation
- Creates deep shadow lines and beautiful curb appeal
CEDUR shakes come in three multi-width sizes — 5¼”, 7¼”, and 12¼” — allowing you to design with intention.
