West African Iroko Cladding – TLAQ Tongue & Groove
Secure world-class architectural timber directly from our highly advanced Somerset milling facility. West African Iroko is globally recognised as the ultimate premium cladding material, boasting exceptional dimensional stability, very few knots, and a stunningly rich, uniform colour palette. When strictly machined into the TLAQ profile, it delivers a completely seamless, perfectly flush architectural facade. This imported African hardwood is absolutely perfect for high-end luxury developments demanding rigorous durability and absolute aesthetic perfection.
Mechanical Profile Advantages
The highly specialized TLAQ profile is explicitly designed to solve complex commercial installation challenges requiring a completely uninterrupted, flush surface. Because it does not feature a shadow gap or V-joint, the deeply machined tongue and groove mechanism locks the boards entirely flush against one another. This creates an incredibly rigid structural barrier that actively prevents severe external weather ingress while presenting a flawlessly smooth minimalist face.
Because our master machinists utilise strictly heavy duty carbide tooling, the square profile edges sit absolutely perfectly together. This precise dimensional accuracy actively ensures a completely seamless installation across expansive commercial elevations, making it highly versatile for both exterior architectural facades and premium interior panelling.

Why choose West African Iroko over British Cedar?
