  • Green Building Assistance & LEED® Credit Potential.
  • Base material contains 50%+ recycled content. LEED® MR Credit 4.
  • Several paint options with SRI value greater than 29. LEED® SS Credit 7.
  • All products are 100% recyclable to assist in waste stream diversion. LEED® MR Credit 2.
  • Manufactured in the Pacific Northwest by a local workforce.

On the North Clad website they’ve got some good pictures to get a feel for the scale and to get some creative juices flowing.  I may just rip the brick off my house to put up their rain screen.
