CLADDING PLANKS

Fibre Cement Board (FCB) is a strong, durable material used widely in construction. While all FCB products share the same core ingredients, they come in different forms for different purposes. Boards are large, flat sheets typically used as backing material or structural sheathing behind other finishes. FCB planks, on the other hand, are long, narrow strips specifically manufactured as the final, visible exterior cladding. They feature specially shaped edges such as tongue-and-groove or overlapping jointsthat lock together to create weatherproof seals, preventing water from penetrating behind the walls. Planks are also lighter and easier to handle than full boards, making installation faster and more manageable.

FCB planks are available in two standard widths to suit different design needs. The 3000mm by 150mm option offers a narrow profile that creates a refined, traditional weatherboard appearance ideal for residential homes seeking a classic look. The 3000mm by 200mm option provides a broader face, delivering a more contemporary, streamlined aesthetic with fewer visible joints perfect for modern commercial buildings and larger facades. Both sizes offer the same outstanding durability, fire resistance and weather protection and come in a variety of textures, colours and finishes. Whether you choose the narrower or wider plank, you get the timeless beauty of timber or stone, combined with the long-lasting, low-maintenance performance of fibre cement.
