ATLANTA, Ga. – MoistureShield®, a division of Oldcastle APG®, a CRH Company, has unveiled its latest composite innovation, MoistureShield Cladding. Resembling rich, natural hardwoods without the extra upkeep, MoistureShield Cladding offers a durable, low maintenance finish while adding an elegant aesthetic to any exterior.
“We are thrilled to announce MoistureShield’s Vision® and Meridian™ capped composite decking lines are available for cladding use,” said Matthew Bruce, Vice President of Sales, MoistureShield. “MoistureShield Cladding meets the heightened demand for attractive, high-performance exterior solutions by offering enhanced durability and sophisticated architectural detail for any outdoor environment.”
Featuring MoistureShield’s proprietary Solid Core™ manufacturing process, the new cladding is protected against moisture absorption, warping, rotting, and damage from insects on all four sides. This ensures the resilient, color-enriched composite cladding will withstand the elements, providing a natural aesthetic that doesn’t require staining or painting. MoistureShield also offers the only cladding-approved deck board rated for use in the ground, on the ground, or under water.
