How to choose composite cladding that’s right for you

Choosing the right composite cladding panels in Australia comes down to finding the perfect balance of style, durability, and budget for your project. Start by considering the look you want to achieve - do you prefer a traditional timber appearance or a more modern, sleek design? Think about the location and its exposure to the elements; high-traffic areas or those facing harsh sun and rain might require a more robust, capped composite. Don't forget to factor in the installation process - some options are easier to DIY than others. Finally, explore the variety of colours and textures available to find the perfect match for your home's style, ensuring a beautiful and long-lasting finish that you'll love for years to come. For exposed elevations, outdoor cladding panels should be assessed against the substrate, fixing method and site conditions. For house cladding, check the product’s fixing requirements and maintenance guidance against the project brief.

Other cladding solutions to consider

As part of your research, you should make sure all the different options for cladding before making a final decision. Timber cladding, for example, is a very popular choice in Australia, revered for its natural aesthetics and robust reliability. For something a bit different, render plaster systems offer a nostalgic look but one that is quickly catching on again. Finally, you can't get more solid than concrete cladding, a choice that has an undeniable presence and strength.

How long does composite cladding last?

As a general rule of thumb, the longevity of composite cladding in Australia ranges from 20-25 years.

What material is composite cladding made from?

Composite cladding is made from composite materials. Composite materials are primarily made up of polymer and wood fibres that are combined with adhesives and fillers to create rigid panels used to cover building exteriors.
