ENDURING BEAUTY BEGINS  WITH A STRONG FINISHOur advanced ColorPlus® Technology creates a vibrant, consistent finish for years of lasting beauty, adhesion and fade resistance. ColorPlus® Technology finishes last longer and look brighter on your home.

COLORPLUS® TECHNOLOGY

MORE THAN EXCEPTIONAL PAINT, IT’S AN EXCEPTIONAL PROCESSOur proprietary finish is baked onto the boards, delivering exceptional finish adhesion, color retention and permitting year-round installation.

COLORPLUS® TECHNOLOGY

This process heats and pre-conditions boards for a stronger bond with coating.

PRE-HEATING1Our finish is applied to the surface, edges and features of our siding and trim products.

FINISH APPLICATION2

James Hardie’s ColorPlus® Technology resists fading and looks better longer.

LASTING COLOR4A final heating process bakes-on the finish for maximum performance.

BAKED-ON BOND3

What does this mean? “Delta-E” is the standard measure for the change in color. The higher the Delta-E, the greater the change.

COLORPLUS® TECHNOLOGY

Exceptional Fade ResistanceWhen considering the cost of siding, think about long term performance. We put our ColorPlus® Technology finish head-to-head against siding painted with commercially available exterior grade paint. We exposed these boards to the same 5,000 hours of UV light to replicate the effects of sunlight over five years.

* All samples exposed to 5000 hours accelerated QUV-B weathering per ASTM G154-12a, which approximates 5 years exposure in Florida sun. Paint A and B are premium exterior grade latex paint applied per manufacturer’s instructions.

MAKE A STATEMENT, NOT COMPROMISESJames Hardie siding provides authentic design that vinyl siding cannot match. Our products are up to 5x thicker than vinyl siding products, providing deeper shadow lines and a warmer wood grain texture with seams that are less visible.

*Illustration simulates weathering and termite damage effects on painted wood trim and HardieTrim® boards resulting from hypothetical exposure to ice, cyclic wetting and drying, and termite attacks over time. The actual appearance of your trim might be different than this illustration and will depend on many factors, including but not limited to: the frequency of maintenance and repainting, the type of paint used, the type and quality of wood trim, use of insect treatments, the condition of the trim when it was installed and painted, and actual weather, UV or climate exposure.

VS. WOOD & WOOD COMPOSITES

THE DRAWBACKS OF CAULKING OR USING “H” JOINT CLIPS ON BUTT JOINTSUnlike wood composite siding, James Hardie® siding resists shrinking, swelling and it does not require a 3/16-inch gap* at each butt joint.

Clips accentuate the gap and fade at a different rate. Clips require maintenance to prevent water penetration.

Caulk is difficult to color match and fades at a different rate. When caulk fails, water may penetrate the butt joint.

*Based on wood composite siding manufacturer’s published installation instructions.

NOT ALL FIBER CEMENT IS THE SAMEJames Hardie® products are generations ahead of generic fiber cement in aesthetic and performance advancements, including climate-specific formulations and ColorPlus® Technology.

VS. GENERIC FIBER CEMENT

GREATER DIMENSIONAL STABILITYHardiePlank® lap siding absorbs less water, and expands and contracts less than other fiber cement. Better dimensional stability mean less unsightly gaps between boards.

*Temperature cycles, moisture and other environmental factors can cause siding to move on a wall. Stable siding resists buckling or warping and its joints are less visible. The amount siding will move is contingent on storage practices, proper installation and a good frame job. Always correct framing irregularities before installing siding. Never install wet siding.
