“The desire to accent the golden tones
of the locally sourced Lannon stone that
anchors the structure with a natural wood
toned cladding material was the basis for
selecting Iron Woods® Garapa,” according to
Brian Lotz, Timber Holdings USA’s Director
of Business Development/Outside Sales and
Environmental Compliance.
Garapa, also known as Brazilian ash, is
a straight-grained exotic hardwood sourced
from South America. Garapa’s durability,
resistance to decay, chatoyance, and above
all its warm golden hue made it an ideal
choice to complement the creamy yellowish
Lannon stone that clads the structure’s lower
walls. Lannon stone is a type of limestone or
dolomite that is quarried in nearby Lannon,
Wisconsin.
“Our proprietary rain screen system
brought state-of-the-art back-drained rain
screen cladding and soffit technology to
enhance building envelope performance and
extend the building’s service life and energy
performance,” Lotz said. In addition, the
FSC certified Garapa also helped the Grande
Cheese Company achieve a desired level of
building sustainability.
