Cladding Finish - Woodgrain

Supertech cladding smooth finish

Supertech fibre cement cladding is currently only available in natural timber woodgrain finish.

Supertech Lap Trims

Available in 3m lengths, the Supertech lap colour matched trims have a number of options to cover all applications when planning your cladding project.

External Corner (Symmetric)

Used on the vertical corners where lapped boards are being installed on either side of the corner. The aluminium 90deg trim has equal dimensions for a perfect external corner finish.

External Corner (Asymmetric)

Used on the vertical of windows and doors. Supertech Asymmetric Corners have a shallower return leading into the window/door reveal which allows for a single piece of board to be installed and finish the reveal.

Connection Profiles are installed to the inside edge of window and door reveals to wrap around the cut edge of board that is used to finish the reveal.
