Suitable for ground-floor and mixed-storey applications, the 8.5-millimetre-thick fibre cement panels enable bold designs for home exteriors, whether it is used alone for a minimalist finish or alongside other James Hardie fibre cement exterior products for a more personalised finish.

It is easy to install as the embedded texture technology enables beautiful, consistent textured panels that connect to each other with shiplap joints. The panels are also cut to size and are typically gun-nailed, which means there is no need for specialist trades.
