Low Cost Building Materials
Fiber Cement Siding
This low cost building material is also known as fiber cement cladding, and provides an easy to install, cheap and durable way to cover the exterior of both domestic and commercial buildings. The fiber cement is produced by mixing a composite of sand, cement and cellulose fibers, and is manufactured in a number of styles including sheet/clapboard, imitation shingles and imitation cladding, and requires little preparation before installation and very little maintenance once in place.
You can get varying thickness of fiber cement siding, and the denser products have excellent sound proofing, thermal insulation, fire proofing and impact resistance, and unlike wooden shingles or cladding this material is not susceptible to rot or burrowing insects.
Fiber cement siding is a practical, low cost and adaptable building material, which can be used for a wide range of design and construction projects.

Nichiha products can be fitted over existing metal, wood, structural insulated panels (SIP) and concrete masonry unit (CMU), and do not require specialist skills to install.
