The Engineered Performance of Nichiha

  1. The Ultimate Clip

    This creates a hidden fastening system that all but eliminates face fastening. Installation is quick and easy and never requires specialty contractors.

  2. Nichiha Architectural Wall Panels

    The panels are lightweight, easy to handle, and available in a virtually endless color palette and a diverse offering of textural finishes.

  3. Joint Tab Attachment

    Designed to support panel lateral stability, the tab helps vertical joints stay tightly closed and fastens to the Ultimate Clip with provided screws.

  4. Drained and Back-Ventilated Rainscreen

    This design allows water to escape and air to circulate, reducing the risk of mold and water damage inside the building.

  5. The Ultimate Starter Track

    This pulls double duty: it supports fast, level installation while its patented drainage channel directs water out and away from the base of the wall.

Nichiha fiber cement gives you the rich, authentic look of natural wood or stone without the heavy maintenance.
