Weathertex, renowned Australian manufacturer of eco-friendly timber cladding, has recently launched Selflok Vgroove 150 Smooth, a new product in its Selflok range. This latest innovation builds on Weathertex’s reputation for producing high-quality, sustainable building cladding, while offering unique features tailored to meet contemporary architectural styles.
The Selflok Vgroove 150 Smooth cladding boards are designed to provide a sleek and modern aesthetic. Vgroove refers to the distinctive V-shaped groove running along the edge of each board, which adds depth and a subtle shadow line, enhancing the visual appeal of any structure. 150 denotes the board’s groove spacing in millimetres, offering a balanced proportion suitable for both residential and commercial applications. The Smooth finish further distinguishes this product, offering a refined, even texture that contrasts with the natural wood grain options available in other Weathertex products.
One of the standout features of the Selflok Vgroove 150 Smooth is its ease of installation. The Selflok system is an innovative design that allows the boards to securely interlock with each other. This simplifies the installation process which is particularly beneficial for builders and contractors, as it reduces labour time and costs, making it an efficient choice for large-scale projects.
In terms of sustainability, the Selflok Vgroove 150 Smooth continues Weathertex commitment to environmentally responsible cladding. The boards are made from 97 percent hardwood and 3 percent natural wax, with no added silica, glues, resins or formaldehydes. This composition ensures that the product is not only safe and non-toxic but also highly durable and resistant to common issues like termites and rotting. Weathertex’s timber is sourced from local PEFC-certified state forests or private hardwood sources, which ensures responsible forestry practices and contributing to the product’s low environmental impact.
Another notable aspect of the Selflok Vgroove 150 Smooth is its durability and low maintenance requirements. Weathertex products are designed to withstand the harsh Australian climate, and the Vgroove 150 Smooth is no exception. The smooth finish of the boards means they are easy to clean and less likely to trap dirt and debris compared to textured surfaces.
The Selflok Vgroove 150 Smooth has a modern appearance, suitable for a wide range of architectural styles, from contemporary urban homes to sleek commercial buildings. It is factory pre-primed, allowing it to be painted in any colour to match specific design requirements. This flexibility allows architects and designers to achieve their desired vision without compromising on quality or performance.
Whether for residential or commercial projects, the Selflok Vgroove 150 Smooth promises to deliver both visual appeal and long-term performance, reinforcing Weathertex position as a leader in sustainable building cladding. Start your design journey with Selflok Vgroove 150 Smooth, a better choice for you and the planet!
