A great way to appreciate the role of exterior wall cladding is by looking at it as a layer of extra protection and skin to a building’s exterior. Apart from aesthetic appeal, exterior wall cladding also provides several benefits including thermal insulation and weather resistance. This helps in improving the overall appearance, function, and life of a building. When it comes to cladding, a wide range of materials are used including brick, wood, vinyl, metal, and composite material. Greenlam Clads offers superior quality exterior wall cladding for a host of applications. Here is a look at what sets Greenlam cladding apart from other cladding options. Let’s find out.

The Basics

Cladding must possess certain desirable characteristics such as durability, resistance to the elements, and aesthetic appeal. Greenlam Clads’ GLE technology allows our cladding to go above and beyond your expectations. It is manufactured using laminates that can withstand extreme weather conditions, making it perfect for external walls. However, the list of GLE Technology advantages does not stop there. Here are three pillars that support GLE Technology and help Greenlam Clads manufacture high-quality cladding. Read on.
