Stria™ Cladding
Description

Stria™ Cladding Smooth is an ultra-sleek cladding option that plays with definitive lines and shadows to instantly transform home designs into an extension of personal style. Find inspiration in the versatile elements Stria™ Cladding brings to external walls for dynamic and unique residential and commercial facades that really stand out.

Stria™ Cladding Smooth has distinctive square-shaped grooves and can be laid horizontally or vertically, introducing an interesting design feature to the walls of the home. Imagine a house that's completely wrapped in Stria Cladding where every wall is different, where it's not just the wall style but the colour being changed; Stria brings a playful element it brings to design.

It can be used to create colourful feature walls, full cladding for new builds, cladding for additions and renovations and internal feature walls. Stria™ Cladding is lightweight and durable, making it ideal for overhangs, protective cantilevers and other striking architectural features.

Made from fibre cement, Stria™ Cladding is a durable, low maintenance cladding that can be painted any colour. It's also designed to withstand our harsh weather and coastal conditions.
