Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I install these on a building over 18m tall?

No, these panels are specifically rated for buildings under 18m in height.

Does this product require painting?

No, the Black Ash woodgrain finish is integrated into the material and does not require painting.

What is the fire classification?

The boards have a reaction to fire classification of D-s3, d2/(AHM).

Can these be fixed to concrete?

Yes, provided you first install a timber batten framework secured to the concrete with appropriate masonry anchors.

How much area does a 5-pack cover?

Each 5m panel covers 0.75 square metres, meaning the 5-pack provides 3.75 square metres of coverage.

Troubleshooting

Panel misalignment during installation

Ensure the first board is perfectly level, as this determines the alignment for the rest of the stack. Use a spirit level at every third row to check for drifting.

Visible gaps between panels

Verify that panels are fully seated into the overlap and check that the mounting battens are not bowed or misaligned.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High impact strength and weather resistance
  • Traditional, attractive Black Ash woodgrain aesthetic
  • BBA approved for peace of mind
  • Easy to install on various wall substrates
  • Significantly lower maintenance than timber cladding

Cons

  • Requires adherence to fire safety regulations (D-s3, d2 rating)
  • Not suitable for buildings exceeding 18m in height
  • Professional installation recommended for optimal thermal and moisture performance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For successful installation, ensure the supporting wall is plumb and level. The panels can be fixed directly to treated timber battens that are spaced according to manufacturer specifications to allow for necessary airflow behind the cladding. When working with masonry or brick, use appropriate wall anchors to secure your batten framework. Always incorporate cavity barriers where the building regulations mandate them to maintain fire safety compliance. For care, keep the surface clean by washing with a mild detergent and water; avoid using abrasive solvents or harsh chemicals that could damage the weather-resistant skin.
