Fibre cement sheeting is chosen as a roofing and façade building product for a whole host of reasons, and here are the main ones:
- Fibre cement panels are water resistant
- Fibre cement itself does not burn, it is a non-combustible building material
- Fibre cement sheeting is UV resistant and far less prone to warping
- Roofing cement boards are easy to install and for this reason is often chosen over wood cladding
- Stands up to the harshest weather conditions, from severe frosts to high winds and heavy rain
- Fibre cement board is also a very lightweight material – it is thinner than concrete yet has the same performance benefits
