HardieTex
Textured Exterior Cladding
HardieTex™ cladding system, or blueboard, is a strong, pre-primed base sheet that is finished on-site with a specialised texture coat system. Made by James Hardie for over 20 years, HardieTex base sheets are the original blue board. Strong and durable, the HardieTex System is a 7.5mm thick fibre cement base sheet that’s finished on site using a third-party texture coat system (which includes joint reinforcement). Ideal for residential homes and home extensions where a rendered look is required without the weight of masonry.
