Fibre-cement sheets for contemporary construction
Few building materials offer a combination of architectural scope and strong technical specifications as convincing as the Cembrit range of fibrecement sheets. For generations, Cembrit has been among Europe’s pre-eminent developers and manufacturers of high-quality fibre-cement solutions. One of our speciality is cladding, an area where looks and qualityare of paramount importance.
Functional. Natural. Creative.
Great durability.
Virtually no maintenance Functionality is a true hallmark of Cembrit fibre cement. The cladding sheets combine strength with easy handling and a stylish, versatile appearance, making them ideal for any facade. The secret behind the impressive strength of the fibre-cement sheets resides in the manufacturing process. Thin layers of the material are added on top of each other, then pressed firmly together under tremendous pressure before the sheets have completed a slow curing process. Reinforced by specially selected fibres, the many thin layers give fibre-cement a strength with few peers in the world of building materials.
A major advantage of fibre-cement cladding is its ability to resist weather of all kinds. Frosts and thaws, lots of heat, lots of water – none of these pose a threat to fibre-cement facades. Fibrecementsheets retain their shape at all times, and their ability to resist rot and fungal infection is equally impressive. The result is a long-lived facade with minimal or no maintenance requirements.
Easy handling is another aspect of functionality. Building site professionals appreciate how Cembrit fibre cement sheets are easy to transport, adapt, and mount. All this makes for lower construction costs and shorter construction times.
Natural materials
Cembrit fibre cement sheets are made from naturalmaterials: cement (i.e. a mixture of chalk and clay), sand, and water, supplemented by non-toxic organic fibres. The sheets are fully reusableand the energy footprint of the manufacturingprocess is very modest.
The freedom architects want
Cembrit fibre cement cladding lets you give your creativity free rein. You get an elegantly textured surface, you can get the colour you want, cut and construct any shape you want – and becausethe sheets are so easy to mount, practical considerationsneed not impede your design ideas. Strong, versatile, and superior value for money, Cembrit fibre cement cladding is designed for a creative future.
