A wide cladding board with a 15mm horizontal joint that has the classic appeal of decorative render. Pre-primed and easy to install, Scyon™ Stria™ cladding is the fast way to achieve a timeless look, and that’s smarter construction.

Benefits:
Speed. This is the fast way to create a modern yet classic look. Instead of laying bricks, rendering, scoring and painting (with all the associated mess and scheduling of different trades), Stria cladding has a simple, speedy installation method. Once the first board is fixed level, the shiplapped joint on the next extra-wide, 4.2m long board is fixed to the top of the previous board and can be concealed or face fixed and joined on or off stud.

Design options. The range of corner finishing details – aluminium, mitred or Scyon™ Axent™ trim – allows a range of different looks to be achieved. For example, easy-to-cut mitred corners mean that horizontal lines wrap the building seamlessly. Alternatively, Axent trim can provide a contrast. Plus, a vertical flashing stop provides a 15mm vertical groove to match the horizontal for a more geometric treatment.

Low maintenance. Stria cladding will maintain its integrity and general appearance significantly longer than timber. Some timber is susceptible to cracking in exterior applications, which in turn can lead to shrinking or warping. Stria cladding will resist shrinking, swelling and cracking * to hold paint longer than wood, and can also be painted dark as well as light colours.

Extra security. Not only does James Hardie provide a 25-year product warranty on Stria cladding, but Wattyl® Australia Pty Ltd feels so confident it has given a 15-year paint warranty on Wattyl Solagard® when used on Stria cladding.

Enhances energy efficiency. When Stria cladding is used with the right insulation (and in accordance with James Hardie’s Wall System Thermal Performance Total R-Values Technical Supplement), an R-value of up to 2.7 can be achieved for the wall. The ability to use a cavity construction system adds to energy efficiency and helps moisture management.

An exterior cladding system with a geometric,expressed joint look. Fast and simple to install, Scyon™ Matrix™ cladding is the commercial look without the commercial price tag.

Benefits:
Simple to install. Instead of needing the steel top hats associated with many commercial systems, Matrix cladding sheets are installed with Scyon™ cavity trim battens. The expressed joint is created easily using a 10mm packer. Sheets are sanded smooth and pre-primed for fast paint application and a high-quality finish.

Design options. Square and rectangular panels with an expressed joint mean a variety of looks can be created, from horizontal and vertical stripes to geometric patterns. Sanded sheets give a flat, smooth finish and digital printing can add even more design options. Matrix cladding’s resistance to cracking, warping and swelling * means it can be painted both dark and light colours. The option ofbrad nailing minimises visual interruption. Matrix™ cladding may be specified for timber-framed or steel-framed structures.

Durability. The Matrix cladding panels are sealed on all sides for durability and stability, and the product has a 10-year product warranty when installed and maintained correctly.

Enhances energy efficiency. When Matrix cladding is used with the right insulation (and in accordance with James Hardie’s Wall System Thermal Performance Total R-Values Technical Supplement), an R-value of up to 3.4 can be achieved for the wall. The ability to use a cavity construction system adds to energy efficiency and helps moisture management.

A vertically grooved cladding panel that looks sharp and smooth. Pre-primed and easy to install, Scyon™ Axon™ cladding is a pristine look that lasts. Used in residential applications wherever a modern design is required, including external walls in composite construction, upper-storey and ground-level extensions, and internal feature walls.

Benefits:
Speed. The stepped shiplap on the long edges of Axon cladding means sheets are easily installed. Paint application is fast because the pre-primed sheets mean less paint and time is needed to achieve a high-quality finish. Finally, sheets are sized to fit common wall frame sizes, which means less waste and cutting.

Design options. The vertical grooves – sharp and consistent, providing a uniform look – are a design alternative to typical horizontal features. The option of brad nailing minimises visual interruption. Axon cladding can also be used to add texture as an eave or soffit lining. Made from Scyon™, it will resist shrinking, swelling and cracking * to hold paint longer than wood, and can therefore be painted dark as well as light colours.

Durability. Axon cladding has a 10-year product warranty when installed and maintained correctly.

Enhances energy efficiency. When Axon cladding is used with the right insulation (and in accordance with James Hardie’s Wall System Thermal Performance Total R-Values Technical Supplement), an R-value of up to 2.7 can be achieved for the wall.

Scyon™ Secura™ exterior flooring

An external structural flooring substrate for ceramic tile finishes over timber or lightweight steel floor joists. Simple and fast to install, Scyon™ Secura™ exterior flooring helps give you peace of mind against moisture damage to balconies. Used as an external substrate for tiled residential balconies and as an alternative to particleboard, plywood or compressed fibre cement.

Benefits:
Security. Secura exterior flooring is sealed on all sides with an advanced polymer coating that helps protect the board from moisture-related problems. A topcoat on the surface of the board provides good adhesion. The mesh reinforcement on the underside enhances the heavy-duty performance of the Scyon™ material, adding extra strength and impact resistance to deliver a suitable external residential flooring substrate.

Easy to install . At about 40kg and 2700mm long by 600mm wide, Secura exterior flooring is about 15% lighter than compressed sheet (per square metre) and can be carried by two people, tucked under the arm and carried like a large surfboard. It’s also tongue and grooved, which delivers engineered joints and eliminates the need for timber trimmers under these joints.

Speed. For balconies that aren’t over habitable rooms – verandas for example – no additional waterproofing membrane is needed once Secura exterior flooring is installed. For balconies over habitable rooms, a waterproofing system needs to be applied.

2700 x 600mm
Thickness: 19.0mm

Scyon™ Secura™ interior flooring - formerly known as Aquatec Flooring

A heavy-duty but lightweight structural flooring substrate that does double duty – it can be easily used for tile, vinyl and carpet finishes over timber or steel floor joists in both residential general interiors and wet areas. Simple and fast to install, Scyon™ Secura™ interior flooring is the easiest way to get top protection against moisture damage in all interior floors. Used as a substrate for direct fixing of tiles, vinyl and carpet in residential floors and wet areas, as an alternative to particle board, plywood or compressed fibre cement.

Benefits:
SPEED. Secura™ interior flooring is 15% lighter per square metre than conventional 15mm compressed fibre cement, which makes it easier to handle. And because it’s made from Scyon™ material, which can be gun nailed and is easy to cut like timber, there’s no need for pre-drilling and screwing. All told it can be up to 40% faster to install than compressed.

NO FUSS. The 19mm tongue and groove joining means it’s compatible with other 19mm flooring products and eliminates the need for timber trimmers along the tongue and groove joint. The moisture-resistant sealer on all sides combined with the moisture-resistant properties of the Scyon™ material removes the need for full floor waterproofing outside enclosed shower areas. And unlike some timber products, tiles and vinyl can be directly fixed without the need for an underlay sheet.

SECURITY. Secura™ interior flooring is resistant to damage from moisture, so if rain holds you up during construction and the roof’s not yet on, the product won’t need replacing or sanding because it’s warped and twisted, like some timber products*. This resistance to moisture damage also means that if there is a waterproofing failure some time in the future, then the Secura™ interior flooring will continue to perform, even if it gets wet. The strong, no-squeak feel of Secura™ interior flooring also gives a solid impression without the weight and cost of concrete. Secura™ interior flooring has a 10-year product warranty when installed and maintained correctly.
* Exposure to the elements should not be longer than three months.
