Our 2.5m x 172mm grey composite cladding boards are perfect for almost any building project, from garden sheds and porches to commercial offices and warehouses.
The highly popular grey finish offers excellent colour stability, fading at a significantly slower rate than traditional timber. This means no annual staining, sealing, or painting is required to maintain the crisp, modern aesthetic over years of use.
Designed with a high strength-to-weight ratio, these boards are incredibly robust yet lightweight enough for easy handling. This speeds up the installation process and reduces labour intensity.
Our shiplap composite cladding is remarkably simple to install. Begin by securing the first board with our dedicated starter clips, then connect the remaining boards directly to your battens, smoothly slotting the shiplap profiles together.
Unlike traditional timber, these composite boards do not suffer from severe weathering issues like warping, rotting, or splintering. They are also highly resistant to insect damage, mould, and mildew, providing a much more stable and longer-lasting exterior.
Maintenance is straightforward: simply remove dirt and debris periodically using hot soapy water and a soft brush to keep your cladding looking fresh.
A key advantage of composite over traditional wood is colour consistency. While you will never need to paint these boards, please note that all uncapped composites undergo a natural weathering process. Expect the grey to fade by approximately 20% over the first six months as it settles into its final tone. Please bear this in mind when selecting colours for your project.
These superb practical features make our plastic composite cladding a highly cost-effective investment, saving you significant time and maintenance costs in the future.
Here are the key benefits of this cladding board and why our customers love it:
- Engineered as an advanced, low-maintenance alternative to traditional timber cladding.
- Highly stable surface colour that fades significantly less than painted wood over time.
- Simple installation using standard tools—ideal for both DIYers and professionals.
- Excellent strength-to-weight ratio for fast, efficient fitting.
