Is wood effect cladding easy to install?

Does wood effect cladding require a lot of maintenance?

One of the biggest advantages of plastic wood effect cladding is its low-maintenance nature. Unlike traditional wood, you can say goodbye to the endless sanding, staining, and repainting. Both Natura and Durasid are designed to weather the elements beautifully, maintaining their stunning appearance for years to come.

Is wood effect cladding the same as solid wood?

While wood effect cladding offers an incredibly realistic wood look, the material composition differs from solid wood. Natura cladding boards utilise UPVC, while Durasid cladding boards are constructed from rigid foam. However, this does not compromise aesthetics, as Natura cladding's innovative digital printing technology produces an exceptional wood look. The key benefit lies in the significantly reduced maintenance needs compared to traditional wood cladding.

Do the different colours have a significant impact?

Yes! Colour selection plays a crucial role in defining the overall aesthetic of your project. Our extensive colour palette offers a range of options, from deep and rich tones to warm and light hues. For Natura, you can choose from 6 beautiful wood decors, each capturing the natural variations of real wood with stunning realism. Durasid boasts a range of 8 captivating colours.
