Fibre Cement Cladding

Fibre cement board cladding is crafted using a combination of cement, cellulose, sand, synthetic fibres, and water, offering a long-lasting and durable cladding board that lasts for many years. It is often used on buildings where a contemporary look is desired and is one of the most practical solutions for building facades. It can also be a great alternative to composite cladding or bricks.

These boards are manufactured using advanced technology to ensure the chemically bonded boards can withstand various impacts. They come with a 10-year guarantee, subject to our terms and conditions. 

There are many benefits of using fibre cement boards on your project. One of the most significant advantages is their superb weather resistance; the boards absorb and release moisture without impacting durability. They also will not rot over time when exposed to rain.

More About Fibre Cement Board:

Fibre cement cladding is a material composed of cement, cellulose fibres and other additives. Combining these components offers a durable, weather-resistant product with exceptional longevity.

The unique manufacturing process involves autoclaving, which enhances the material's strength and dimensional stability, making it ideal for exterior applications.

Key Benefits:

Durability and Weather Resistance: Cement fibre cladding boasts impressive durability and can withstand harsh weather conditions, including rain, wind, and UV rays.

Low Maintenance: One significant advantage of fibre cement cladding is its minimal maintenance requirements. Unlike traditional materials such as timber, fibre cement cladding does not require frequent painting, staining, or sealing. Routine cleaning is sufficient to keep it pristine for years, making it a cost-effective, time-saving choice for long-term building projects.

Versatility in Design: With cement fibre cladding, design possibilities are limitless. Available in a wide range of textures, colours, and finishes, this cladding material can effortlessly complement various architectural styles, from modern and contemporary to traditional developments. Whether you seek a smooth, sleek appearance or a textured, rustic facade, fibre cement board cladding can adapt to your vision.

Eco-Friendly Choice: Fibre cement cladding embodies eco-consciousness, incorporating recycled materials and sustainable sourcing practices. The manufacturing process is energy-efficient, reducing the overall carbon footprint and contributing to a greener construction industry.

Applications of Fibre Cement Cladding

Exterior cladding: Fibre cement cladding's primary application is exterior siding for residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. Its ability to withstand the elements and its design versatility makes it an excellent choice for enhancing the aesthetics and protection of facades.

Internal wall cladding: While renowned for its exterior applications, did you know that cement board cladding is also suitable for internal wall cladding? It adds character and texture to interior spaces, seamlessly transitioning from the exterior design elements.

Soffits and eaves: Cement cladding is an effective solution for soffits and eaves, providing a durable and visually appealing finish while safeguarding the building's structural components.

Installation and Maintenance Tips:

Professional Installation: To ensure optimal performance and longevity, fibre cement cladding should be installed by experienced professionals. Proper installation techniques, including appropriate fastening and gap spacing, are essential for the cladding's effectiveness.

Routine Cleaning: Maintenance of these boards is straightforward. Regular cleaning using mild detergents and warm water is required to remove dirt and grime and maintain its visual appeal.
