Product Information

Full details

The Ecoscape Composite Slatted Cladding in Midnight is ideal for homeowners and professionals seeking a low-maintenance, high-durability exterior facade that mimics the look of traditional wood. Engineered from recycled high-density polyethylene and reclaimed wood fibers, this system provides exceptional weathering resistance and a modern, sleek aesthetic. While it offers unmatched longevity with a 25-year guarantee, users should note that the deep Midnight finish is a bold, dark color that may show surface dust more readily than lighter alternatives.

FAQs

Does the Midnight color fade in direct sunlight?

The composite material is designed to be highly UV resistant, and while minor natural weathering may occur, the color is engineered to remain stable for decades.

Can I install this cladding myself?

While it can be a DIY project for those with building experience, we recommend professional installation to ensure correct sub-frame spacing and alignment.

Do I need to treat the boards with a wood preservative?

No, the product is completely synthetic and reclaimed-fiber based; it does not require, nor should it be treated with, paints, stains, or preservatives.

What is the weight of these boards?

Due to the density of the recycled high-density polyethylene and wood fibers, these boards are heavier than traditional timber of the same dimensions.

How do I cut the boards?

You can use standard woodworking tools, though high-quality carbide-tipped blades are recommended to provide a clean cut through the composite material.

Can these boards be used for interior projects?

Yes, they can be used for interior feature walls, providing the same aesthetic benefits indoors without the risk of wood rot or maintenance needs.

Troubleshooting

Surface debris accumulation

Use a soft-bristled brush and mild detergent with water to gently scrub the affected area, then rinse with a low-pressure hose.

Visible surface dust on Midnight finish

Regularly hose down the cladding lightly to prevent dust build-up; the dark color makes dust more apparent, so maintenance is purely aesthetic.

Uneven board gaps during installation

Ensure that the sub-frame is perfectly level and that expansion gaps are measured consistently across all sections.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resistant to weathering and environmental degradation
  • Environmentally friendly composition using recycled materials
  • Requires no painting, staining, or specialized wood treatments
  • Flexible installation for horizontal or vertical design preferences
  • 25-year manufacturer guarantee for long-term peace of mind

Cons

  • Midnight finish is very dark and may highlight surface dust
  • Heavier than traditional softwoods due to composite density
  • Requires specific cutting tools for composite materials
  • Professional installation recommended for optimal alignment

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the 25-year guarantee cladding system should be performed according to manufacturer guidelines to ensure the warranty remains valid.

Setup:

  1. Ensure a level and secure sub-frame is installed before mounting the boards.
  2. Allow for proper expansion gaps as specified by the Ecoscape installation manual to account for thermal movement.
  3. Use appropriate fixings designed for composite materials to avoid splitting the boards.

Care:

  • The cladding is naturally resistant, so no annual sealing is required.
  • For general cleaning, a simple wash down with a soft brush and soapy water is sufficient to remove dirt or debris.
  • Avoid using high-pressure power washers at close range, as these can damage the surface finish of the composite material.
