To give you a clearer picture of the benefits of HardiePlank siding, we list four of its advantages below.

Appearance

HardiePlank comes in a diverse range of 21 colors, which have been developed using the ColorPlus® Technology (a top-of-the-line method that results in a superior and ultraviolet (UV) resistant finish). It can also be installed horizontally, vertically and diagonally, allowing you to be inventive in the kind of look you want to achieve for your home’s exterior.

Durability

HardiePlank siding is made from Portland cement, cellulose fiber, sand, water and a small amount of chemical additives that enable its durability. These additives are chemically bonded, resulting in a lasting resistance to fire, wind, hail, rain, rot and pests. HardiePlank also has three times more stability than wood, allowing it to remain in top condition even in wet or damp situations.
