A strong base for every facade
Hardie® Panel is installed on a ventilated substructure of timber or metal, ensuring stability and long-term performance. The system allows precise alignment and secure fixing, creating clean detailing across the facade. Proper ventilation behind the boards controls moisture and protects the building fabric. This reliable substructure forms the foundation for durable, safe and architecturally refined cladding solutions.

Yes. Hardie® Panel is classified as A2-s1,d0, meeting stringent fire safety standards for mid- and high-rise buildings.
Absolutely. Hardie Panel® is ETA-certified, CE-marked, and compliant with EN 12467 for fibre cement boards.
Note: Local certifications may be added as required.
Its lower density makes it easier to handle and install, reducing structural load and simplifying subframe requirements—without compromising durability or impact resistance.
Hardie® Panel supports multiple installation approaches:
Visible Fixing (Face Fix): Colour-matched screws or rivets for a bold, industrial aesthetic
Concealed/Secret Fixing (Rear Fix): Undercut anchors and brackets for a clean, uninterrupted surface
Rainscreen Façade Systems: Fully compatible with ventilated systems for moisture control and thermal performance
Horizontal or Vertical Orientation: Panels can be installed in either direction to suit design intent
Note: Horizontal framing should be avoided as it can block rear ventilation.
Hardie® Panel is designed for long-term durability, with resistance to moisture, frost, pests, and fading. Minimal maintenance required. Backed by a 15-year warranty.
