What is Hardie™ Oblique™ Cladding?
Hardie™ Oblique™ Cladding is a fibre cement shiplap board that offers a unique blend of clean lines and geometric precision. This cladding is designed to create bold and striking facades, adding depth and rhythm to modern home exteriors. Available in two widths, 200mm and 300mm, and featuring a distinctive slanted groove edge, Hardie™ Oblique™ Cladding provides a dynamic interplay of shadow and light throughout the day.
Key Features and Benefits
- Design Flexibility: The combination of different board widths and the unique groove design allows architects and builders to create custom patterns and textures. This flexibility makes it possible to align the cladding with windows and other architectural features seamlessly.
- Durability: Made from fibre cement, Hardie™ Oblique™ Cladding is resistant to fire, termites, and moisture, ensuring long-lasting performance even in harsh Australian climates.
