Fiberon, a leader in wood-alternative cladding, is pleased to announce the addition of Bamboo to the Wildwood composite cladding color palette.
Bamboo will join Mulga, Sumac, and Palo in the Sahara Collection, which is inspired by arid, sandy landscapes and rich desert tones. Bamboo is a light blonde oak color with distinctive gradients that mimic the dynamic shading of natural bamboo. It adds a subtle, sandy hue to the Wildwood cladding color palette.
“Lighter cladding colors are trending in the industry, so when our customers began requesting a lighter Wildwood option it seemed like a no-brainer to add Bamboo to the collection,” said Mark Ayers, Fiberon’s senior vice president of marketing and product development. “It is important for us to listen to our partners, and we are excited for the continued success and evolution of Wildwood.”
Wildwood is made of 94 percent mixed recycled wood fiber and plastic content that would otherwise end up in landfills or incinerators. Wildwood is ideal for architects seeking a long-lasting, nearly maintenance-free, more sustainable alternative to traditional wood cladding, providing a solution for projects requiring the beauty of wood while also providing long-term warranted performance.
For added design flexibility, Wildwood has an open-joint profile and is available in a variety of board lengths and widths. It also has a long-lasting composite core that is resistant to rotting, cracking, insects, and decay. It cuts and installs similarly to real wood but without the hassle, and it does not require the same staining and painting maintenance that wood does.
Wildwood is also available in the Eden Collection, which includes Mora, Wenge, Meranti, Koa, and Tupelo – all of which are inspired by lush, tropical forests. Both collections are inspired by nature and feature vibrant colors, realistic textures, and the organic warmth and beauty of real wood.
