Specification

Wood expands and contracts with water absorption. New shingles have a high moisture content,
and dry out over time. When the moisture content lowers, the panel will contract, resulting in
cupping and curling.
Grayne Engineered Shake and Shingle one piece panel design provides permanent straight clean
lines, and the corners will never curl. This is the appearance you want from shingle cladding.
DIMENSIONALLY STABLE WOOD GRAIN
Grayne Engineered Shake and Shingle is designed after shingles which were made using the
plain sawn cut. In this technique, all of the saw cuts are parallel in one direction, resulting in
a variety of wood grain patterns.
