Wall cladding is a creative way to decorate the exterior of a building. It enhances the overall appearance of the property by making it more appealing while providing extraordinary protection against a variety of conditions. However, choosing the appropriate external wall cladding can be a tough task. There are a lot of factors to consider before you choose the right option.
The protective and aesthetically pleasing covering used on a building’s exterior walls is referred to as exterior wall cladding. It plays a crucial role in architecture and provides both functional and aesthetic advantages. By attaching materials to the outer walls, this treatment effectively creates a covering that protects the building from environmental damage and enhances its overall appearance.
By cladding your outside walls, you are directly increasing the amount of protection provided to your structures. External wall claddings are excellent at protecting the building from external weather especially in harsh weather conditions. Warmth, rain, harsh sun, hailstorms, cold, and other factors must be considered while selecting a wall cladding for your space. Choose a very solid, and incredibly strong cladding surface. Merino Armour is specifically developed to withstand all types of weather. Armour is also resistant to corrosion, it protects the building against termites and has undergone a specific treatment that makes it UV resistant and avoids yellowing. Furthermore, it is graffiti-resistant, making it impregnable to vandals.
External cladding panels can help your space maintain a comfortable temperature despite the hot weather outside, saving you money on energy bills. Layers of protective foam must be placed before the cladding is installed to provide great insulation. Armour has been designated as ‘Energy Saving System,’ with results of a 20% reduction in energy consumption when it comes to managing indoor temperature. Also the insulation remains corrosion-free due to minimal intervention from water or moisture through rain.
Choosing the most cost-effective wall cladding isn’t always the best option. A low price tag does not always signify cost efficiency when it comes to claddings. Good quality wall claddings may provide better value than average alternatives. Merino’s Armour is made of Superclad or Filmbased technology high-quality materials and is a cost-effective alternative that comes with unique colours and designs.
Stone and wood are popular options for exteriors depending on how you want to style your building. Different designs and patterns of the cladding add to its look. Armour offers a number of design options, such as wood, stone and solid that makes the space more appealing and stylish.
The use of profiles in a variety of sizes, sheets and external cladding boards is much preferred. Lightweight claddings are popular because they are easy to carry and install.
While choosing a wall cladding, the warranty period is an important consideration. Merino’s Armour is resistant to sunlight and artificial weathering while also preventing discoloration over time. There are two subcategories of Merino’s Armour which includes Superclad Technology Armour that assures a 10-year warranty and Filmbased technology Armour that comes with 5 years warranty against manufacturing defects.
The cost of maintenance is also a major consideration. A sophisticated external cladding that needs frequent maintenance is not an ideal option. It’s clearly more expensive and inconvenient. Similarly, delicate claddings are more susceptible to easy injury. A more durable surface is unquestionably the better choice. Merino’s external wall cladding is the easiest option to maintain when compared to other alternatives. It is one of the most low-maintenance choices available, requiring only regular cleaning to maintain its appearance and quality. Save money on touch-ups and repairs that aren’t essential.

Exterior wall cladding serves several important purposes. It provides a protective barrier against weather elements like rain, snow, wind, and UV radiation, helping to prevent damage to the underlying structure. Cladding can improve a building’s insulation, reducing energy consumption and enhancing comfort. It can enhance the appearance of a building. Cladding materials are chosen for their durability, extending the life of the building envelope.
Depending on the cladding material utilized, exterior wall cladding waterproofing varies. Some cladding materials, including laminates and vinyl, naturally resist water and can successfully deter moisture incursion. However, for proper waterproofing, cladding installation is crucial, including the use of weather barriers and sealants.
Exterior wall cladding’s fire resistance varies depending on the material. Brick and metal are two cladding materials that naturally withstand fire. The construction of fire-resistant barriers beneath the cladding may be necessary for some materials, such as wood or vinyl, or extra fireproofing treatments. These elements as well as regional building codes affect how fire resistant the whole wall structure is.
Merino Armour is the best treatment for external wall cladding. It undergoes a special UV protected treatment making the claddings UV-resistant and preventing discolouring even under long exposure to direct sunlight.
