The fiber cement siding, composed of cellulose fibers and cement, is resistant to impact, humidity, salt air and carpenter ants. Its very high durability first made it popular with contractors and renovators of commercial buildings a few years ago, but fiber cement is also increasingly used in the residential sector.
Available in variations for a classic look or in panels for a more contemporary look, fiber cement siding can be smooth or textured. In fact, it is a material that can very well resemble wood, available in relief even imitating the veins of the wood, but also in its handling, because it is also easily cut and drilled.
