What are the main ingredients of Weathertex?
Weathertex is 97% hardwood timber and 3% natural wax for water repellency. White acrylic primer is then applied to the surface. The accessory products are made from a range of materials including Polycarbonate/ ABS Alloy (PC/ABS), aluminium and galvanised steel. Weathertex joiners are designed to match their relevant range and profile and make joining Weathertex cladding easy, while creating a strong join that also allows for timber contraction and expansion. Concealed joiners are a different option that minimises the appearance of the joiner by sitting behind the cladding.
Is Weathertex a safe product to use?
Weathertex has similar properties to most natural wood products. Made from 97% hardwood timber and 3% wax, Weathertex is Low VOC and has no Silica, Gles, resins or Formaldehyde. A Safety Data Sheet (SDS) is available in accordance with Worksafe Australia Guidelines, and the following statement is made in the MSDS.
