Safe and compliant fibre cement cladding solutions for recladding projects

With any reclad project, there is no ‘one size fits all’ solution. Many factors impact the decision. Cemintel offer a comprehensive range of fibre cement products suitable for use in recladding projects that satisfy the non-combustible requirements of the BCA Volume 1 Part C1.9e and help in mitigating against further risk.

To help overcome the complexity associated with a reclad project, Cemintel provides access to its DesignLINK team for specific project support and design assistance with alterations to framing so that fibre cement panels can be installed. Relevant documentation can be provided to regulatory bodies and certifiers, as well as insurance companies, to assist with obtaining professional indemnity insurance.
