With the traditional style of timber shiplap cladding growing in popularity in the UK, Cedral Weatherboard offers a cost effective solution to a beautiful and classic design. Marley Eternit Cedral Weatherboard is a fibre cement cladding plank which looks like natural timber and is a low maintenance alternative to either wood or PVCu. This external cladding board is manufactured from a mixture of cement, organic fillers and water, creating an autoclave fibre cement plank.
Cedral Weatherboard stands up to the harshest conditions, offers a class O fire performance and is totally resistant to pests and insects. Cedral is water protected which means the planks won’t drip, warp or distort like timber boards.
Cedral Weatherboard cladding can be supplied in a natural finish for on-site painting or in a range of 23 factory applied solid colours and 4 woodstain shades.
