Our cladding range

Hi-strength fiber cement cladding

Hi-strength (hi-density) fiber cement cladding is a durable and versatile material with a history spanning over 100 years. Engineered to provide reliable, long-lasting facades, this noncumbustible* material offers exceptional resistance to fire, harsh weather, and daily wear, making it a trusted material for architects and builders worldwide.

Composed of cement, cellulose, and mineral materials, it delivers a sleek, modern aesthetic while maintaining structural integrity for over 50 years. All EQUITONE materials have a through colored core, minimizing the visibility of scratches or gouges, which makes repairing quick and easy. When used in open-joint rainscreens, it enhances both functionality and design, providing superior protection and performance for commercial and institutional facades.

Designed for comfort and efficiency

Buildings clad with fiber cement panels are designed to create comfortable, efficient spaces. Primarily used in ventilated rainscreen assemblies, these systems help to reduce heat transfer and enhance airflow, contributing to better temperature regulation year-round—an essential feature for commercial projects prioritizing sustainability and occupant comfort.

EQUITONE fiber cement also provides improved sound insulation to the rainscreen assembly, minimizing noise transmission without additional treatments. This makes our materials an ideal solution for high-density commercial developments, mixed-use buildings, and properties located in noisy urban environments.

Easy installation

EQUITONE offers simple installation with comprehensive step-by-step guides.

Ventilated rainscreen system

EQUITONE fiber cement panels are designed to be used within a ventilated rainscreen system, a sophisticated open-joint, back-ventilated façade solution that enhances building performance and longevity. This system protects insulation, deflects moisture, and promotes airflow, allowing for the effective drying of both liquid and vapor. By promoting airflow behind the panels, the system helps maintain a dry, well-ventilated structure, ensuring long-term protection against the elements.
