The Real -Deal in Shou Sugi Ban Siding: Steve's 1 on 1 with world's largest manufacturer

In this episode of the Build Show, expert builder Steve Baczek explores the real-world performance and beauty of Shou Sugi Ban siding with Nakamoto Forestry, the world’s largest manufacturer of this time-honored material. Filmed at his Desert Serenade project, Steve demonstrates the installation of charred Japanese cypress cladding and explains the advantages of Nakamoto’s complete rain screen system—designed for durability, ventilation, and long-lasting aesthetics. Joined by Bill, president of Nakamoto Forestry, the discussion highlights the company’s century-old roots in Japan, its 60% market share in Yakisugi siding, and its thoughtful approach to bringing pre-finished, low-carbon products directly to North America. Together, they break down everything from finish options like Gendai and Pika Pika, to ease of installation, corner solutions, and long-term maintenance. This episode offers builders, architects, and homeowners a comprehensive look at why Shou Sugi Ban is not only stunning, but also a practical, sustainable cladding choice.
