Nichiha EX Series panels are cement bonded fibrous wood particle products that are pressed with a surface texture. They are cut to a standard length of 3030mm or 1820mm with an effective cover width of 455mm and 16/18/21mm nominal thickness. The horizontal edges of the panel are machined with a complementary tongue and groove profile. For the 1820mm panels, the vertical edges have a tongue and groove profile as well. A compressible sealing strip is bonded onto the tongue which enables the panels to fit neatly together to form a weather resistant joint.
The panels have been pre-finished using a durable multi-layered paint process to simulate a range of textured finishes.
There is a range of color matched accessories including pre-formed external corners, joint sealants, various metal accessories such as trims and touch-up paint kits to speed installation and enhance the project finish and appearance.
