Hardie™ Oblique™ Cladding delivers a fresh slant on modern home design. It is a perfect fit for the growing trend of vertical cladding in modern home design and is well suited for any of the Modern Looks. Unlock a bold, contemporary aesthetic with the wide grooves and bespoke arrangements.
Hardie™ Oblique™ Cladding is the only Hardie™ exterior cladding with a slanted groove, delivering highlights and shadows resulting in sophisticated lines that give walls extra depth. Available in two widths, the shiplap boards allow for simple alternation or artful and unique combinations.
The horizontal Hardie™ Castellated Battens simplify vertical installation*, allowing ventilation and drainage through the cavity. The 2750mm boards suit common wall heights to help to reduce waste, while the 4200mm lengths give tall walls a continuous look, reducing the need for horizontal joints. The boards are pre-primed and ready to paint.
