James Hardie ColorPlus^® Technology

James Hardie^® siding products with ColorPlus^® technology — a unified composition of advanced fibre cement and baked–on pigment — combine the highest quality raw materials, proprietary manufacturing process and equipment, revolutionary paint technology and innovative colour process that gives homeowners a superior siding solution for their homes.

James Hardie — the largest producer of fibre cement siding in North America — is the only siding manufacturer that controls its product from the initial mixing of the cement to final painting in one facility. To ensure that every board meets James Hardie’s high standards, over 41 quality assurance checks are made throughout the manufacturing process. Each batch of siding is also checked at three outside testing facilities to monitor long-term durability.

The James Hardie ColorPlus^® technology finish also represents a revolutionary breakthrough. The paint used in the process was made especially for James Hardie siding after more than four years in development and the testing of over 2,000 formulas. The end result is a durable, low&ndas;maintenance finish that lasts up to two times longer, has 30% better fade resistance and adheres up to 400% better than any other paint available.¹

In addition, James Hardie backs its ColorPlus technology finish with a 15–year warranty that covers both paint and labor.²

All of this means that when you choose James Hardie siding products with ColorPlus technology:

• You have the assurance that you have selected the most durable, low–maintenance highest–quality siding product possible.
