Why this material

The details that make it worth choosing.

A darker alternative to cedar

Choose fir when you want a deep brown, bark-heavy finish instead of cedar’s lighter colour.

Mixed texture for full coverage

Fine bark fills the surface while larger pieces add natural variation.

Organic surface cover

A proper layer helps shade soil, slow new weeds, and reduce moisture loss.
