But unlike real wood, which needs to be cleaned annually and stained every five years, Eurowood™ is strictly low maintenance. Or pick a colour, any colour While our Eurowood™ finish is our special point of difference, we can powder-coat or anodise any products in our range to match your colour scheme. With some products, it’s even possible to have one colour for the external surface and another colour for the inside. Simply show us the colour you need and let us do the matching.

Weather Board Design Options
higher performance building products, our weatherboard system is purpose-built to
reassure. Aluminium is one of the world’s most durable building materials. It can handle any weather, which is why it’s just perfect for cladding systems. We’ve taken aluminium’s reliability a step further with our patented Cavity Clip system, which creates one uniform cavity around the entire house. HERE’S HOW THE CAVITY CLIP SYSTEM WORKS Traditionally, timber battens are used to create a cavity and to fix cladding to a wall. This system results in multiple closed-off cavities, which inhibit airflow and create uneven equalisation zones around the house. With our Cavity Clip weatherboard fixing system, cladding is attached to the frame with special clips that allow a consistent 20mm cavity right around the house. Because air can flow around the cavity without obstacle, air pressure is equalised. The benefit is a drier, healthier house. PAINT-FREE WEATHERBOARDS Our weatherboards are finished in Eurowood™ to match popular wood finishes, powder-coat or anodised, to suit your exterior colour scheme. Matching flashings and mouldings ensure quick installation and a flawless result. While standard weatherboards need to be repainted many times throughout the life of a home, aluminium weatherboards deliver a future free of wet paint.
