SHERA Plank Categories
SHERA Plank comes in two main categories:
Square cut edge (overlapping style)
These planks are more 'traditional' and are used in external siding applications where the planks overlap the preceding rows. These planks come in Teak or Cassia or even smooth surface profiles and the Teak surface planks also come in coloured formats, see below.
The planks have various profiled edges and give a more 'modern' shiplap look to your siding application. Edge profiles are shown below. The shiplap range are primarily uncoloured format and can be painted pre-installation or on site, using any acrylic water based paint.
