Hardie® VL Plank Fibre Cement Cladding Boards

Hardie® VL Plank fibre cement cladding combines a natural wood look with the durability of fibre cement, making it a premium alternative to traditional timber cladding. With a strong cedar texture and versatile installation options, VL Plank is ideal for modern homes, renovations, and commercial projects.

Durable, Low-Maintenance Exterior Cladding

Hardie® VL Plank is made from high-quality fibre cement, offering superior resistance to rot, mould, and pests compared to traditional timber cladding. Backed by ColourPlus™ Technology, the boards are factory-finished with a multi-coat baked-on system that is fade-resistant and reduces maintenance, keeping your home looking great for years.

Flexible Installation with Clip-less Technology

The VL Plank clip-less system allows for faster installation — up to 20% quicker than standard external cladding systems. The boards interlock perfectly, making them suitable for horizontal or vertical installation, with vertical applications particularly recommended for a striking, contemporary façade.

Fire-Rated for Added Safety

Hardie® VL Plank is non-combustible with an A2 fire rating, providing an extra layer of protection for your home while maintaining a natural timber-like appearance.
