Timber Appeal With Fibre Cement Durability
ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLY
• Minimises the cutting down of trees for timber.
• Raw material from managed resources.
DIMENSIONALLY STABLE
• An autoclaved composite material with a stable
crystalline structure which is resilient to changes
in temperature and humidity. Less shrinkage
compared to air-cured products.
External siding
SURFACE FINISH VERSATILITY
UCO SUPERTEX PLANK is an autoclaved cellulose • Readily accepts a wide range of surface
fibre cement plank. It is an asbestos free building finishes, e.g. acrylic and emulsion paints,
board available in two surface finishes, permanent lamination, ceramic, stones, marble, etc.
woodgrain and smooth textures.
EASY TO INSTALL
APPLICATIONS • Cutting down construction time and cost.
Ideal for siding, gable end, fascia, fencing, cladding
and ceiling. MINIMAL MAINTENANCE
• Virtually maintenance free - cost effective.
ADVANTAGES
NON HAZARDOUS TO HEALTH
• 100% asbestos-free.
FIRE RESISTANT
• Class ‘O’ classification according to Malaysian
Uniform Building By-Laws.
DURABLE
• Resistant to rot and water damage.
• Not affected by termite or other insect/vermin attack.
• When used and installed correctly, it does not
crack or warp.
Fencing
• Chemical resistant to mild acid attack.
