Fiber Cement Siding Options
Lap Siding
Allura’s traditional, horizontal lap siding has the natural appearance of wood, but won’t splinter, warp, or peel. Available in both smooth and wood grain texture, the planks come in a wide range of widths from 5-¼ to 12-inches, all in 12-foot lengths. Choose from 5 natural looking wood stains, 25 popular solid colors, or ready to paint finishes.
Allura Trim
Complete your house siding project with Allura Trim. Designed to look like wood, but without any of wood’s drawbacks, Allura Trim gives the perfect finishing touch to a home’s exterior. The 5/4 and 4/4 trim are both reversible, with a wood grain finish on one side, and a smooth finish on the other. Both are available in a range of sizes, as well as 5 stains and 25 solid colors, all with long-lasting color. The 7/16 trim has a wood grain finish and is available ready to paint so you can complete your cedar-look siding project.
Panels
Sleek, durable, and versatile, Allura’s architectural panels are designed for modern and large-scale commercial projects. The panels are available in smooth or wood texture, each available in three sizes - 4x8, 4x9, and 4x10. The panels come in the same 25 solid colors as Allura’s traditional siding, as well as in a ready to paint finish.
Allura Shake
Get the look of hand-hewn cedar shingles with Multishake. Allura’s fiber cement shingles, shakes, and half-rounds are designed to give you a wide range of looks for your home’s exterior. Get all the look and texture of real cedar shakes without the costly high maintenance.

Soffit
Soffits complete the underside of your roof overhang and bring important protection and ventilation to this area. Unlike traditional wood, Allura’s Fiber Cement Soffit is engineered to repel moisture, withstand any climate and provide extensive protection around the home.

Each is available in a range of colors that can let your coordinate your soffit with the rest of the house’s color, trim, and style.
Backerboard
When it comes to home construction, water can be your worst enemy. That’s why Allura Backerboard is the all-around better choice. Unlike plywood, our Backer features an exceptionally durable and dense, non-porous surface, perfect for kitchen and bathroom applications. Flexible and strong enough to handle all sizes of tile, these backerboards come with a 20 year warranty.
