Cladding System
TBT Horizontal
Modern horizontal shiplap boards have become increasingly popular as a contemporary alternative to traditional vertical cladding. This horizontal orientation provides a sleek, modern look while complementing vertical timber — allowing the two styles to coexist harmoniously on the same facade.
