Feelingwood products are designed not to be ripped to reduce thickness, but they can be ripped to reduce length. As long as the ripped board can still be installed according to the installation instructions, the warranty will remain valid. When fastening ripped panels, please use caution as pre-drilling may be necessary.
Feelingwood does not endorse the use of non-recommended fasteners for cladding installation. If any issues arise due to the use of a non-recommended fastener, such conditions will not be covered under the Feelingwood Limited Warranty. Please consult our Installation Guide for more information.

Feelingwood cladding will lighten naturally as it weathers over the first 2-3 months of outdoor exposure before stabilizing. This lightening is caused by rain washing out naturally occurring dark wood oils (called tannins) and UV exposure. The color lightening is reduced and gradually remains stable after this period.

Installing Feelingwood cladding is not difficult. Our installation guide provides valuable tips and tricks to ensure a smooth installation process.
Pressure-treated wood cladding requires ongoing maintenance, including sanding, staining, and painting, which adds to the overall cost over time. While Feelingwood may have a higher initial investment, its lack of maintenance needs ensures you’ll never have to sand, stain, or paint it. This results in significant savings throughout the cladding’s lifespan, surpassing the cost of wood.
Although Feelingwood’s primary materials are recycled, the rigorous processing involved in creating this cladding ensures its superior quality and performance. This advanced manufacturing process results in a cladding material that outperforms traditional wood, ultimately saving you money through lower maintenance requirements.
Feelingwood cladding is crafted from 90% recycled materials, including reclaimed sawdust and recycled plastic derived from common household items such as plastic overwrap from paper towel and toilet paper packaging, dry cleaner bags, newspaper bags, and grocery and shopping bags.
Feelingwood cladding offers unmatched durability and performance compared to traditional wood cladding. It resists termites, rot, warping, and splintering, and never requires staining or painting. Furthermore, our cladding is crafted from 90% recycled materials, making it an environmentally friendly choice you can be proud of.
