Created by nature
After the demolition of old barns, the reclaimed wood is imported to the Netherlands and kiln-dried to ensure stability. Each plank is carefully selected for quality and length, then processed into barnwood cladding. The result is durable, character rich reclaimed timber cladding ready for unique and sustainable projects.
Barnwood is the collective term for reclaimed oak and pine planks salvaged from historic barns, farmhouses, and mountain cabins in the Alps and Balkans. Traditionally used as external timber cladding, this wood has been weathered by decades of wind and sun, creating a rich patina, natural texture, and an authentic, characterful look.
Reclaimed wood cladding
Our reclaimed wood cladding is salvaged from historic barns, where decades of exposure to the elements have created deep textures and a natural weathered patina. This authentic ageing gives every plank a unique character, making reclaimed wood cladding a perfect choice for sustainable and stylish façades.

We carefully transform old barnwood into high-quality reclaimed wood cladding suitable for both interior and exterior use. Nails are removed, backs can be planed, and the wood is resawn into fixed widths to create beautiful random-width cladding patterns while preserving the original character.
Because the timber has aged naturally for decades, reclaimed wood cladding is highly stable and no longer attractive to pests. The result is reclaimed oak and pine cladding that combines durability with timeless charm.
We supply reclaimed wood cladding worldwide from the Alps to Southern Europe and South Africa bringing sustainability, warmth, and a unique story to every project.
Reclaimed wood Cladding
With over 10 years of experience, Historisch Hout is a specialist in reclaimed timber cladding. We produce high quality barnwood wall cladding boards and reclaimed wood panels from centuries old oak and pine salvaged from farmhouses and mountain barns. After import, the wood is kiln-dried, cleaned, denailed, and resawn. This careful process ensures durable recycled hardwood cladding with stability that new timber cannot match.
Why Choose Reclaimed Oak Cladding?
Reclaimed oak cladding offers natural patina, knots, and grain that tell the story of its past life. The robust textures and weathered colors create an authentic look, perfect for external wood cladding as well as interior wall features. Compared to freshly sawn oak, reclaimed timber is far more stable and has acclimated for decades. This makes it an ideal material for recycled exterior cladding in more humid climates.
Flexible Options – From Rustic to Refined
Our reclaimed timber cladding is always produced from solid barnwood or recycled hardwood, ensuring maximum durability and authenticity. We supply the cladding in traditional plank form, but also as narrower resawn strips or profiled hardwood slats crafted from upcycled tropical hardwood. This allows us to provide a wide range of solutions from rustic, characterful barnwood to sleek, refined profiles perfectly suited for both private homes and commercial facades. By reusing aged barnwood, we actively reduce the need for newly harvested timber. This makes our reclaimed timber cladding not just visually unique, but also an environmentally responsible choice.
New Timber Cladding Options
In addition to our reclaimed oak cladding and recycled exterior cladding, we also offer new, sustainable timber solutions. Our thermo oak “Aged” and oak tongue and groove planks are crafted from responsibly managed European oak and provide excellent durability, stability, and a refined appearance. These products are a perfect alternative when reclaimed barnwood is not suitable for technical or aesthetic reasons. With their warm look and long lifespan, they form a stylish and eco conscious option for façades, walls, and ceilings.
