A STYLISH TWIST TO COASTLINE CLADDING

While the popularity for horizontal cladding is going nowhere , vertical cladding is fast becoming a prominent trend - especially for homeowners looking to give their home a fresh look and for new build properties .
Eurocell ’ s Coastline Cladding range has a purpose-developed aluminium rail system to provide a quick and secure fixing . Because of its lightweight design and interlocking mechanism , it is significantly easier to handle than conventional cement boards - freeing up time to move on to other projects .
The new range of Vertical Coastline Cladding offers current colour design trends , with three stylish options : Sage
Green , Anthracite Grey , and Moondust Grey . The premium matt embossed wood grain skin not only provides a natural finish but also guarantees up to 10 years of waterproof performance .
Discussing the technical elements of the Vertical Coastline Cladding , Ian Kernaghan , head of product design and development at Eurocell , said :
“ Our Vertical Coastline Cladding is engineered to expedite installation while maintaining high quality . The simple interlocking mechanism , combined with our quality control aluminium trims and end closers , ensures a flawless finish . Crafted without wood fibres or organic materials , resisting moisture absorption , rot , and insect attraction .”
The Weatherproof Performance ensures enduring durability for up to 10 years , making it the perfect choice for all weather conditions . For a contemporary touch , the sleek flush finish of the vertical cladding option elevates the visual appeal of ground floor extensions , effortlessly
complementing both brick and render finish buildings .
