Product Information

Full details

Ecoscape Composite Slatted Cladding is designed for homeowners and contractors seeking a high-performance, weather-resistant facade solution that mimics the warmth of natural wood without the typical upkeep. Crafted from a robust blend of recycled high-density polyethylene and reclaimed wood fibers, these boards offer excellent durability and a long-lasting aesthetic. While the product excels in ease of maintenance—eliminating the need for staining, painting, or oiling—potential users should note that the installation process requires careful planning regarding the structural support and sub-frame layout to ensure a professional finish.

FAQs

Do I need to paint or seal the boards?

No. One of the main benefits of this composite system is that it requires no painting, staining, or sealing to retain its natural oak finish.

Can I install this on my own?

While the system is designed to be user-friendly, we recommend basic carpentry skills and experience with sub-frame construction to ensure structural integrity.

Is the cladding fire-rated?

The product is designed for exterior use, but please refer to the latest product data sheet for specific fire safety certifications and compliance with local building regulations.

Does the color fade over time?

The material is UV-stabilized to minimize color fading; however, minor weathering is natural and may occur over many years of exposure.

Can I install these boards vertically?

Yes, the cladding system is fully compatible with both horizontal and vertical installation orientations.

What happens if a board is damaged?

Individual boards are designed for removal if necessary, though it is recommended to replace damaged sections by unscrewing the adjacent fixings.

Troubleshooting

Visible gaps between boards

Ensure that the boards have been clipped or screwed firmly into the sub-frame following the specific expansion gap requirements noted in the technical manual.

Surface appears dusty or dull

Rinse the cladding with clean water and scrub gently with a soft-bristled brush to remove accumulated environmental debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly lower maintenance requirements than natural timber
  • Environmentally friendly composition using recycled materials
  • Highly durable against rot, decay, and harsh weather
  • Versatile orientation options for unique design patterns
  • Excellent 25-year manufacturer guarantee

Cons

  • Requires a specific sub-frame system for proper installation
  • Color may vary slightly between production batches
  • Initial investment is higher than traditional soft-wood cladding

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Ecoscape cladding system requires a properly prepared, level sub-frame, typically constructed from pressure-treated timber or aluminum battens. It is critical to ensure proper ventilation behind the boards to prevent moisture buildup.

Installation Steps

  1. Install the sub-frame at the required spacing intervals as specified by the building design.
  2. Fix the starter clips at the base of the project area.
  3. Secure the first board and use appropriate composite cladding screws to fix subsequent boards.
  4. Use matching edge trims to conceal exposed board ends for a professional look.

Care Instructions

To keep the cladding looking its best, periodic cleaning with a soft brush and warm soapy water is sufficient to remove dust or pollen. Avoid the use of high-pressure power washers, as they may damage the surface texture of the composite material.
