Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this cladding require painting?

No, it is fully finished in light grey and ready for immediate installation.

Can I install this on a curved wall?

This product is designed for flat, straight surfaces and is not intended for curved architectural features.

What is the thickness of the boards?

The boards are 12mm thick.

How should I store the boards before installation?

Store them flat in a dry, covered, and well-ventilated area to prevent warping or moisture absorption.

Is this cladding fire-rated?

Please consult the specific technical data sheet from SAM Mouldings for local fire rating compliance and certifications.

Troubleshooting

Visible gaps between interlocking boards

Ensure the underlying support battens are perfectly plumb and level. Adjust the fixing tension to allow the tongue-and-groove profile to seat fully.

Surface chipping during cutting

Use a high-quality, fine-toothed saw blade and ensure the finished face of the board is facing upward (or use masking tape along the cut line) to prevent splintering.

Moisture ingress behind cladding

Verify that your installation includes the recommended ventilation gap behind the cladding and that all edges are properly sealed or flashed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ready to install with a factory-applied light grey finish
  • Modern double shiplap profile enhances exterior curb appeal
  • Sturdy 12mm thickness provides a high-quality, durable finish
  • Saves significant time on site compared to unfinished timber alternatives

Cons

  • 4.88m length can be challenging to transport without a long-bed vehicle
  • Requires precise cutting to ensure the shiplap joints lock correctly
  • Not suitable for direct ground contact or submerged environments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure your support structure is dry, level, and structural sound. The cladding should be installed according to local building regulations to ensure proper ventilation behind the boards, which prevents moisture buildup. When cutting to length, use a fine-tooth blade to prevent chipping the light grey finish. For cleaning, periodically rinse the exterior with mild soapy water and a soft brush to remove dust and debris. Avoid using high-pressure washers directly against the joints, as this may force water into the underlying structure. Always consult the SAM Trimax cladding installation video guide provided by the manufacturer for specific fastening patterns and spacing requirements.
