The world’s first composite cladding incorporating Glass-Reinforced Polymer and Graphite-Infused Polystyrene (GP)2 Technology is now available in the U.S. Let’s explore some of the reasons why ALIGN composite cladding is a “must-have” for style, strength, durability and easy upkeep.
The Science Behind ALIGN Composite Cladding
It’s the details that make this innovative cladding beautiful and the science that makes it different, including:
- Glass particles in the (GP)2 compound increase structural integrity, strength and heat resistance.
- Graphite-Infused Polystyrene increases energy efficiency and reduces thermal bridging, and also helps achieve an R‑value of 2.0 when applied directly over sheathing.
- Titanium dioxide shields against ultraviolet degradation.
- Impact modifiers increase resistance to dents, dings and abrasions.
- Non-moisture-absorbing materials prevent rotting, warping, shrinking and swelling.
Long-Lasting Beauty
ALIGN has an authentic cedar mill grain texture to provide homeowners with the rich look of wood without the costly upkeep. Each deep-grain embossed plank is fortified with weatherable pigments to ensure long-lasting color retention, including darker hues. Choose from a curated palette of 20 colors to enhance curb appeal.
Engineered to Last
Strong yet lightweight construction helps ensure a high-performance home exterior for peace of mind. ALIGN is performance-engineered to resist high winds, moisture, flame spread/smoke development, termites and impact damage from dents, dings or abrasions.
This innovative cladding delivers the high-end aesthetics customers want, and the lower total installed cost businesses need. Use the Gentek Visualizer to experiment with ALIGN composite cladding colors today.
