Royal® Building Products Launches 5” Smooth Clapboard Profile in Celect® Cellular Composite Siding and Celect® Canvas Unpainted Siding

New 5” smooth panel features brushed finish with same high performance and low-maintenance benefits of the Celect® Cellular Composite Siding line

WOODBRIDGE, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Royal® Building Products, a Westlake company and leading manufacturer of exterior building products, has announced the addition of 5” Smooth Clapboard offerings in Celect® Cellular Composite Siding and Celect® Canvas Unpainted Siding. The new siding products feature a smooth brushed finish and the same low-maintenance benefits as traditional Celect products.

The new Celect 5” Smooth Clapboard is available in 15 fade-resistant colours and features a patented interlocking seam design, which keeps moisture out and almost completely eliminates seams.

The new Celect Canvas 5” Smooth Clapboard profile is an unpainted version of Royal’s industry-leading cellular composite siding. Celect Canvas features the same brushstroke finish, woodgrain aesthetics and low-maintenance benefits as traditional Celect products, with the ability to customize the siding colour using thousands of exterior vinyl-safe paint shades that fall within the recommended light reflectance value (LRV) rating of 50 and above.

In addition to delivering the sought-after smooth exterior aesthetic with distinct shadow lines, all the Celect Smooth products provide labor-saving benefits for the builder, protection and insulation from the elements and reduced maintenance requirements for homeowners.

“We are thrilled to be expanding our Celect Smooth offerings this year, with this new 5” profile in both pre-finished and unpainted versions,” said Steve Booz, vice president, marketing, Royal Building Products. “This has been a highly-anticipated addition to our portfolio of innovative exterior products and we are expecting a great response from architects, builders and remodelers.”

Celect Cellular Composite Siding and Celect Canvas Unpainted Siding are both backed by an industry-leading limited lifetime warranty. To learn more, visit RoyalBuildingProducts.com.
