James Hardie Launches NEW Stria™ Cladding Fine Texture: An extension of our popular Stria™ Cladding range

James Hardie is proud of its ability to deliver innovative, design-led products that meet the needs of modern Australian homes. We are excited to introduce our newest innovation to the Hardie™ Architectural Collection and an extension to our popular Stria™ Cladding Range – Stria™ Cladding Fine Texture.

NEW Stria ™ Cladding Fine Texture: A stackable textured board, built to last This innovation combines the render-like texture of Hardie™ Fine Texture Cladding and the simple installation and visually appealing format of the much-loved Stria™ Cladding format. It provides architects, designers, builders and homeowners an affordable, attractive and robust cladding option, particularly for ground floor and single-storey application.

Strong and Robust: A solid, 14mm thick stackable board with a sharp v-groove and subtle embedded render texture giving a robust feel on ground floor applications.

Engineered to Endure: Durable and low maintenance with resistance to fire, rot, moisture damage and termite damage.

Easy & Cost Effective: Simple installation. Concealed fix with minimal face fixing or patching required. Off stud joining option can help to reduce waste and the number of timber studs required.

Design Versatility: Aesthetically versatile given its suitability across many looks, can be installed vertically or horizontally and the v-groove is a contemporary evolution to the existing Stria™ Cladding Smooth product.

Available in 3000mm and 4200mm board lengths, vertical installation is ideal for creating Box Modern, Barn or Modern Farmhouse designs. Alternatively, stack the boards horizontally for a more traditional render look.

Made with Hardie™ fibre cement, Stria™ Cladding Fine Texture is engineered to endure. The texture is embedded in the panel, so there's no risk of it debonding, helping it to keep looking good for many years to come. Cracking or peeling off is a risk with applied textures such as cement or acrylic render.

Suitable for ground floor and broad wall applications, and with the versatility to use standalone or pair with other profiles in the Hardie™ Architectural Collection, you can create dream modern homes from the ground up with Stria™ Cladding Fine Texture.

• Availability in 3000mm and 4200mm lengths helps to reduce waste in broad wall applications
