Exterior Wall Siding

Challenge:

Develop a next generation siding product that would provide the appearance of wood siding, available in many colors for design flexibility, have a long lifespan, a low lifecycle cost, extremely durable finish, resists fading, ideal for any climate zone, and recyclable.

Solution:

Everlast® Advanced Composite Siding is produced from a proprietary composition of inorganic minerals, polymeric resins, and acrylic colorants, giving it strength, durability and ease of installation without sacrificing performance or curb appeal. Everlast is a robust solid plank that is light, easy to cut and install, has a co-extruded capstock surface, and can be installed utilizing many readily available siding and trim accessories. Since the siding is made with acrylic colorants and is not painted, it provides superior weatherability.
