Silver Creek manufactures its Western Red Cedar Shakes and Shingles to exacting standards and our products are considered the benchmark for quality and consistency in the industry. Silver Creek actively endorses “Green Building”- Western Red Cedar is an environmentally, economically and socially responsible building material for Future Generations. Utilizing cedar for roofing and sidewall needs in whole building designs helps to make these structures energy efficient and reduces their long-term impact on human health and the environment. Even the by-products of cedar shake and shingle production are utilized as hog fuel and biomass, further reducing our reliance on petroleum based fuels.

Environmental
Cedar is a wise environmental choice for both renovation and new construction building- cedar shakes and shingles are produced from a sustainable source that grows naturally using solar energy and it is both renewable and recyclable. Wood has the lowest impact on air and water quality due to its minimal energy use in the manufacturing process. Trees absorb harmful carbon dioxide and release oxygen thereby off setting greenhouse gas emissions that cause global climate change. Carbon is stored during the growth cycle of a tree for decades or even centuries. Canada is recognized as a leader in not only advanced manufacturing technology, but also for our practice of sustainable forestry initiatives and third party forest certification.
