Character strengths Transforming the look of a home is easy and affordable with the Designer Series clip-panel system from NZ Brick Distributors Over recent years, house cladding has undergone a minor revolution. Today’s facade solutions can be both lightweight and easy to install – and at the same time retain their crisp, clean look for decades. NZ Brick Distributors now carries an innovative Designer Series fixing system that has major pluses for homeowners, says marketing manager Thomas Mitchell. “The lightweight clip-panel solution, complete with pre-formed corners, offers a speedy, hassle-free installation. And the multilayer, prefinished painting system 114 ensures long-lasting performance, and avoids costly repaints down the years.” Panels come in Smooth, Urban, and Textured styles, and a range of colours. Smooth panels have a sleek finish and visible joints for a minimalist look. Urban Grey panels offer a raw cement aesthetic, while Textured panels, in Ebony and Sandstone, bring natural accents. The Designer Series boasts a weathertight cavity system that ensures complete protection from New Zealand’s variable, often extreme climates, says Mitchell. search | save | share at trendsideas.com “The system is very popular in areas prone to seismic activity, as it is strong and sturdy, yet able to move in an earthquake.” To contact NZ Brick Distributors, phone [phone].
