Johns-fr,l,crnville Announces New Line Of Aluminum Siding & Accessories
Johns-Manville announces the addition of aluminum siding and accessories to its rapidly expanding line of building materials.
The new J-M products are factory-finisl-red with a smooth, durable, fire-cured vinyl finish that will not peel, crack or chip and is said to be superior to industry standard surfaces. tr4ade of the highest quality aluminum, they will not rot, rust, warp or sag.
The siding is available in both insulated and standard horizontal eight-inch clapboards. The insulated siding is 10&' long with a rl" butt; the standard siding is 126" long witlr a th" brttt.
The insulated type is laminated with double-beveled % J-M backer board, which greatly increases transverse strength, stifiness and irnpact resistance over that provided by hollow or plastic foam-backed aluminum siding. The J-M troard raises resistance to heat loss, and eliminates the "drumming effect" of rain or hail on non-insulated siding.
The J-M line also includes standard 12" vertical siding and such accessories as starter strips, inside corner pieces, outside corner pieces and posts, window, utility and undersill trim, backer support and flat coil stock. Decorative aluminum shutters are availa'ble in three styles.
All of the items requiring finish come in six matching factory-applied colors.
The new line was added in response to growing consumer demand for aluminum siding, the company said. It noted that the rnarket has grown from 1,450,000 to 4,900,000 squares in the past five years.
This rise will continue in years ahead, it said, as more home-owners recognize the low-cost beauty and protection made possible by aluminum siding.
J-M aluminum siding and accessories are sold through established building materials outlets, applicators and home improvement contractors.
