6 Reasons To Use The Sculptform Tongue and Groove Cladding System

Scuptform’s Tongue & Groove Cladding is designed to be a complete system. By introducing modern profiles, multi-depth options and a range of timbers and finishes, Tongue & Groove Cladding offers the designer true freedom of expression.

Still not convinced? Here are a few of the reasons our Tongue & Groove Cladding is the worlds most refined cladding system.

1. Multi-depth cladding

Tongue & Groove Cladding allows designers to turn traditional cladding into a feature by implementing Sculptform’s custom profiles. The Queenscliff and Sorrento profiles provide a unique twist on conventional cladding, where the Element profile truly brings an extra dimension by incorporating battens into the cladding system. Easy to install and simple to specify, this batten-look cladding gives designers more options than ever before.

2. End-matching options

The process of end-matching has benefits for both installer and designer, as well as improving the look of the finished product.

End-matched cladding is machined with a tongue and groove system on the ends, which allows boards to be joined anywhere, not just on the stud. This increased flexibility hides joins more effectively and drastically reduces wastage, making the system cheaper and more appealing aesthetically.

End-matching also makes Sculptform’s Tongue & Groove Cladding waterproof, increasing the range of external areas it can be used. The installation process is faster than the standard cladding, with significantly less cutting involved.

4. Instant pricing available in Price & Spec

When specifying a cladding product, having as much information as possible is vital. A highly detailed specification ensures design intent is met and allows builders and installers to know exactly how the finished product should look. Price and Spec is Sculptform’s pricing and specification tool, designed to provide detailed, accurate pricing and specification information in real time.

By delivering pricing and specification data instantly, Price and Spec allows designers to create and change their sequence until they know they have the perfect option. Once they have exactly what they want, DWG downloads of the custom sequence are available, along with a PDF containing all the specification data.

5. Proprietary aluminium stops and corner solutions

Attention to detail is an area where Tongue & Groove Cladding excels. With features such as the starter extrusion and proprietary corner solutions, the system caters to the design intent – rather than the other way around.

6. Factory finished timber

Tongue & Groove Cladding offers customisability within every aspect, and finishes to the timber are no exception. With a huge range of species and finishes available, our cladding has the capability to achieve almost any look required. The timber is finished in our factory and supplied to site ready to install, saving time and money.
