FreeFoam Shiplap PVC Cladding Board – 150mm x 5000mm (5m)

The FreeFoam Shiplap PVC Cladding Board is a durable, low-maintenance external wall cladding solution that provides the traditional appearance of timber shiplap without the regular painting, staining and maintenance associated with wood.

Each board measures 6mm x 150mm x 5000mm (5m) and features a smart single shiplap profile, creating clean horizontal lines across the finished elevation. It is ideal for replacing tired timber or older PVC cladding and for adding a decorative, weather-resistant finish to dormers, roof elevations and smaller areas of external wall.

FreeFoam PVC shiplap cladding is available in a choice of colours, making it easy to coordinate your external cladding with existing windows, doors, fascia and other roofline products.

What Is PVC Shiplap Cladding?

PVC shiplap cladding is an exterior cladding system made from interlocking PVC boards. The profile creates the distinctive overlapping appearance associated with traditional timber shiplap while providing the durability and low-maintenance benefits of modern PVC.

The FreeFoam shiplap system is designed for exterior use and provides an attractive alternative to traditional wooden cladding.

Unlike timber, PVC does not require routine painting or staining and is resistant to many of the common problems associated with exposed wooden cladding, including moisture, rot and insect attack.

FreeFoam 150mm Shiplap Cladding

The boards are supplied in long 5000mm (5m) lengths, helping to create a consistent finish with fewer joints across suitable elevations.

FreeFoam PVC Shiplap Cladding is suitable for a range of external applications where an attractive, durable and low-maintenance finish is required.

Typical applications include:

• Dormer elevations

• Gable ends
• Small external wall areas

Its traditional shiplap appearance makes it suitable for both refurbishment projects and new installations.

Is PVC Shiplap Cladding Better Than Timber?

PVC shiplap provides several practical advantages for applications where reducing ongoing exterior maintenance is important.

Traditional timber cladding requires periodic treatment, painting or staining to maintain its appearance and protect the wood. FreeFoam PVC cladding requires significantly less maintenance and can generally be cleaned using soap and water.

PVC is also resistant to rot, moisture and insect attack, making it particularly well suited to exposed external areas such as dormers, gables and roof elevations.

Does FreeFoam Shiplap Cladding Need Painting?

No. FreeFoam PVC Shiplap Cladding does not require painting or staining as part of its normal maintenance.

The boards are supplied with their finished colour already applied, allowing the cladding to retain a consistent appearance without the regular repainting associated with timber.

A choice of colours also allows the cladding to be coordinated with other exterior products, including windows, doors, fascia and soffit.

Low-Maintenance External Cladding

One of the main advantages of PVC cladding is its straightforward maintenance.

FreeFoam shiplap boards can be cleaned using soap and water to remove normal dirt and surface contamination. This makes them particularly useful in locations where maintaining painted timber would be inconvenient, such as dormers and elevated sections of a property.
