CertainTeed adds Single 7-inch profile to CedarBoards XL

CertainTeed, North America's brand of interior and exterior building products, announced the recent addition of a Single 7-inch profile to its CedarBoards XL Insulated Siding line. CedarBoards XL, the extra-length version of CedarBoards Insulated Siding, has all of the advantages of standard 12-foot length CedarBoards, but because it is 33 percent longer (16 feet, 8 inches), it reduces seams by 40 percent. It is available in the same 12 low-gloss siding colors as regular CedarBoards and can be installed with the standard length CedarBoards Single 7-inch profile panels.

"We are pleased to add the new Single 7-inch profile to our CedarBoards XL Insulated Siding line, as it will give contractors yet another option and help make their job easier," says Phyllis Vail, Director of Marketing Communications for CertainTeed Siding Products Group. "Using CedarBoards XL helps to minimize seams, allowing for a smoother appearance. In addition, all of our CedarBoards products are ideal for green construction projects, as they improve the overall R-value of a traditionally insulated wood-framed wall by up to 39 percent and help reduce home heating and cooling costs."

CedarBoards also helps meet the performance guidelines of an ENERGY STAR qualified new home.

CedarBoards Insulated Siding is CertainTeed fastest-growing siding line. In addition to its enhanced thermal performance, the product's custom-contoured foam insulation helps block sound infiltration and provides added strength and rigidity for outstanding impact resistance. Aesthetically, CedarBoards features a straight, flat face, a deep 3/4-inch panel projection and TrueTexture rough cedar finish molded from real cedar boards for the classic look of beautifully crafted wood siding.
