Hardie, TimberTech & AZEK Selected as Good Housekeeping 2027 Home Reno Awards Winners

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--James Hardie announced today that the Hardie TimberHue™ Collection, TimberTech Impression Privacy Screen^®, and AZEK Alpine Collection were named winners in Good Housekeeping’s 2027 Home Reno Awards. The full list of awards can be found on goodhousekeeping.com/homereno2027.

Recognized for their combination of lasting beauty and resilience in demanding climates, the three award-winning products help homeowners, trade professionals and designers create durable, thoughtfully designed spaces built to stand the test of time. James Hardie’s best-in-class portfolio is uniquely represented in Good Housekeeping’s 2027 Home Reno Awards, with three separate brands earning recognition; a distinction no other company shares this year.

Each year, engineers and product analysts at the Good Housekeeping Institute, together with a team of home improvement professionals, spend months rigorously evaluating the best products and services for home remodeling and maintenance. As part of the evaluation process, analysts send products into the homes of consumer testers to see how they perform in real-world conditions, while GH design pros weigh in on style and aesthetics. To determine the winners, judges focus on key attributes including quality, value, efficiency, sustainability, and overall design appeal.

Hardie TimberHue

“Along with its warmth and beauty, the TimberHue Collection meets the same performance standards our engineers have found with other Hardie products that have been through our rigorous evaluation process,” said Dan DiClerico, Home Improvement & Outdoor Lab Director, the Good Housekeeping Institute.

The TimberHue™ Collection of Hardie^® products offers new, premium two-toned finishes that combine the timeless beauty of a natural, stained-wood look with the unparalleled durability and performance of Hardie’s renowned fiber cement material and ColorPlus^® Technology finishes.

TimberTech Impression Privacy Screen

“Solid construction, including a stabilizing gasket between the rails and slats, eliminates any metal-on-metal rattle, so the screen won’t create a racket of its own as it helps block out noise from the outside world,” added Dan DiClerico.

Impression Privacy Screen is a first-of-its-kind privacy screen solution that provides both decorative screening and functional railing together in one system, offering homeowners a seamless look. An expansion of TimberTech’s existing award-winning railing line, Impression Rail Express^®, Impression Privacy Screen is engineered to work together as a unified system and has been wind-load tested for durability so homeowners can have the cohesive look they want with the performance they need.

AZEK Alpine Collection

“Our experts have evaluated AZEK trim in various forms for several years now, enough to verify its resistance to moisture, rot, and insects. We like that the Alpine Collection also maintains a Class A flame spread rating, the highest surface-burning classification available for building materials,” said Dan DiClerico, Home Improvement & Outdoor Lab Director, the Good Housekeeping Institute.

The Alpine™ Collection, features a factory-applied laminate that mimics the look of rich, stained wood. Available in nine natural finishes, Alpine delivers long-lasting beauty for porch ceilings, soffits, and covered walkways—without the maintenance of real wood.
