Craneboard Solid Core Siding: A Solid Alternative to Vinyl Siding & Cedar
CRANEBOARD Solidcore is the first wide panel, insulated siding with "no give". CRANEBOARD is a unique product in the industry designed to appeal to homeowners that want a stiff strong solid backed vinyl siding that doesn't have the give associated with vinyl siding.Crane is available in wide widths without any cupping. Because the siding is bonded to a solid backer, the resulting seams are tighter than normal panels. (Centerlock also features very tight laps) Crane is a part of the Vipco family which invented vinyl siding in 1957. Crane manufactured the original hula hoop.
As impressive as this 6 inch lap is, the new seven inch panel is even more impressive in our opinion.
One of the nicest and most striking features about CRANEBOARD is that it looks great from a distance and also up very close. In the image shown right, this 7 inch pattern is nearly identical to the look of the old growth cedar.
This is a great accomplishment since that was never possible in a maintenance free siding until now. Craneboard certainly is a step ahead of the competition.
