Are There Advantages to Using Pura NFC Siding?

Traditional vs Modern? Pura NFC Has You Covered

Wood-Look or Light Diffusing Matte? 

A Perfect Fit for Contractors and Architects

 

Renovating the outside of your house has many significant benefits. Whether you have lived there for years or you just moved in, investing in new siding is one of the best decisions you can make to increase the value and curb appeal of your home.

 

Are There Advantages to Using Pura NFC Siding?

There are some excellent siding options on the market. However, selecting Pura NFC Siding by Trespa for your home has big, lab-proven benefits that outpace other popular materials.

Pura NFC Siding is an HPL Laminate cladding that consists of several layers of high quality wood strands and thermosetting resin with a cured surface to harden and protect the colors. These ingredients create a strong and flexible material resistant to heavy storms, high winds, and hard impacts to protect your home from the elements.

Choosing Pura Decors give huge advantages:

  • Wide selection of wood-look and matte colors.
  • Extremely high resistance to damage
  • Never needs to be painted, sealed, or refinished.
  • High fade resistance, even in areas with strong UV exposure.

Finally, Pura NFC siding creates an elegant finish that lends itself to traditional, contemporary, or modern exterior designs. 

2. Pura Romantic Walnut Décor on a contemporary lakefront home has a smooth and sophisticated finish. Contrasted with the stone foundation and the large glass windows, the cozy feeling of the wood-look siding extends all the way up to the soffits.

 

 

 

Pick a Pura NFC Siding Color You Love And It Will Stay That Color!

Pura décor colors resist strong UV to stay rich and vibrant, with a 10-Year Warranty on color and gloss fade-resistance from Pura. The surface of the siding is treated with a proprietary Electron Beam Curing process that locks both the color and the gloss of the finish in and keeps dirt and moisture out. 

This is especially important if you plan to use a dark brown or black wood tone, like Slate Ebony, which tend to show fading earlier than other colors in comparable sidings on the market. Strong UV can leave the most exposed sections of your exterior lighter, leaving uneven color. 

Lighter colors like Classic Oak benefit from the curing process as well, since ground in dirt will dim the beauty of the siding over time and leave it looking dingy and unattractive. 

 

3. Classic Oak Wood Décor adds a neutral, wood-look contrast on the walls and overarching architectural wall against the visually cold black steel and glass of the main building. 

 

Low maintenance is not just a buzzword.

As stated earlier, Pura NFC Siding never needs painting or refinishing. Regular cleaning should be done as needed but all you need is soap and water. The durability is outstanding so cracks, holes, and scratches are very rare, saving you time and money on repairs.

 

Go ahead and lean your bike against your Pura siding, it won't leave a scratch.

 

Constantly guards against mold, rot, and pests

Pura NFC has superior damage resistance, creating a better barrier to protect your home. Resilience against hard hits like flying storm debris, or flying objects like soccer balls, are no threat to the good looks of your exterior.

Avoiding the small holes and breaks over time from impacts not only keeps out bugs and mold, it saves money on repairs and preserves the curb appeal of the exterior much longer.
