What is gap siding?

Gap siding, also known as "shadow gap siding" or "rainscreen siding," is a type of exterior cladding where there is a deliberate gap or space between each siding board. This gap is usually uniform and can range from a few millimeters to a few centimeters, depending on the design and aesthetic preferences. The primary purpose of gap siding is to create a modern, linear look that adds depth and shadow lines to the building's facade. In addition to its visual appeal, gap siding also allows for better ventilation and drainage behind the cladding, which helps to prevent moisture build-up and prolongs the life of the building's exterior. This makes it an excellent choice for buildings in wet or humid climates. The gaps can be left open, or a backing material like a black membrane might be used to accentuate the shadow lines and protect the underlying structure.

About this product

It is a fully finished product, meaning you do not need to treat it with a moisture barrier. Being fully capped, the boards are impervious to water absorption. Your external timber-look cladding will stand up to all weather conditions, without requiring maintenance from you.

Utilising hidden fixings that hold the boards perfectly in place, as well as raising them up from the wall joist system, allows for air circulation between the cladding joists.

The CO-EXTRUDED CAP protecting all sides of a cladding board are an impenetrable layer that withstands stains, colour fading, scratches, cupping, swelling, mould and mildew.

The COMPOSITE CORE is a mix of high-quality recycled materials including dense hardwood and softwood fibres. It provides our products with impressive strength and durability. Panels and boards are all 100% recyclable as well.
