What Type of Siding is Trespa Pura?

Pura NFC is a High Pressure Laminate (HPL) designed to deliver an exceptional and durable product for your exterior design. It's a material that can be counted on to protect home exteriors and building facades from the elements, beautifully.

The siding is created from several layers of high-quality wood strands plus thermosetting resin.
The surface is treated with a patented EBC process that hardens the finish. This protects the colors and gloss finish from UV fading, scratching, embedded dirt that can dim the attractiveness to ensure long-lasting curb appeal.
Specifically engineered to be strong and flexible, resistant to flying storm debris, hail, high winds, and rot.
