Product Information

Full details

The FloPlast 150mm Rosewood Shiplap Cladding 5-pack is designed for homeowners and contractors seeking a durable, low-maintenance aesthetic solution for external walls. Its primary benefit is the combination of a traditional, elegant timber-look finish with the resilient, weather-resistant properties of high-impact UPVC. While it offers excellent durability and BBA-approved quality, users must ensure compliance with local building regulations regarding fire safety and cavity barriers, as it is strictly rated for buildings under 18 metres in height.

FAQs

Can this cladding be painted?

It is not recommended to paint this UPVC cladding, as the Rosewood finish is designed to be permanent and low-maintenance.

Is this cladding fire-rated?

Yes, it carries a reaction to fire classification of D-s3, d2/(AHM), making it suitable for buildings under 18m in height.

What tools do I need to cut the panels?

You can easily cut the panels using a fine-toothed hand saw or a circular saw with a blade suitable for plastic.

Can I install this directly onto a brick wall?

It is standard practice to fix treated timber battens to the wall first, then fix the cladding panels to those battens to ensure proper ventilation.

How much area does one pack cover?

One pack contains 5 boards, with each board covering 0.75 square metres, resulting in a total coverage of 3.75 square metres per pack.

Is it suitable for coastal areas?

Yes, because the material is UPVC, it is not susceptible to salt-air corrosion or rot, making it an excellent choice for coastal properties.

Troubleshooting

Board appearing uneven or wavy after installation

This is often caused by non-level fixing battens. Ensure all support battens are perfectly plumb before attaching the first board.

Surface dirt accumulation in the overlap

Use a soft-bristled brush with mild detergent to gently clear debris from the recessed joints during your annual maintenance clean.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality BBA approved manufacturing
  • Weather-resistant and rot-proof
  • Requires virtually no ongoing maintenance
  • Quick to install over multiple wall types
  • Elegant, consistent rosewood aesthetic

Cons

  • Not suitable for buildings exceeding 18m in height
  • Requires specific fire safety consideration regarding cavity barriers
  • Rigid UPVC may show scratches if impacted with sharp objects

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation Requirements:

Ensure the wall substrate is sound, level, and dry before fixing. While the cladding can be fixed directly to timber battens, ensure you have appropriate `cavity barriers` installed if required by local building control to meet the D-s3, d2/(AHM) fire classification standards.

Tools Needed:

  • Fine-toothed hand saw or circular saw for trimming
  • Corrosion-resistant fixing nails or screws
  • Spirit level for maintaining alignment

Care Instructions:

To maintain the Rosewood finish, avoid harsh abrasive cleaners or solvents. A simple wash with warm soapy water and a soft cloth is sufficient to remove dirt and surface debris. Avoid high-pressure washers, which can force water behind the cladding panels if not sealed correctly.
