The benefits of composite cladding for energy efficiency

With energy prices creeping up again, we know how important it is to find ways to make your home more energy-efficient and save some cash. That’s where composite cladding comes in! Not only is it an effective solution for boosting your property’s insulation, but it also adds a stylish touch that enhances your home’s overall look and kerb appeal. By acting as a cosy shield around your home, composite cladding helps keep you warm in winter and cool in summer, making your living space much more comfortable.

What is composite cladding?

Composite wall cladding is a fantastic way to enhance the look of your property while providing long-lasting protection. Like other composite products, the cladding is produced from a blend of recycled wood and plastic fibres. This eco-friendly blend of materials offers the natural charm of wood and provides the superior durability of plastic. So, unlike traditional timber,composite cladding won’t rot, warp, or splinter.

At North Valley Composites, we provide a wide range of stylish composite wall cladding options that help you achieve a beautiful and durable finish for your home. Composite wall cladding offers excellent weather resistance, attractive aesthetics and little to no maintenance, making it a great choice for both indoor and outdoor applications!

Superior insulation

Composite cladding provides a strong thermal barrier for your home, stopping those chilly outdoor temperatures from sneaking indoors. In winter, it effectively traps warmth inside, lightening the load on your heating system. This means your home stays cosy during the colder months and comfortably cool in the summer. As a result, it can lower energy bills throughout the year, providing a pleasant living environment without the hassle of constantly adjusting your thermostat.

Protect your home against moisture

Managing unwanted moisture can be a headache, and if left unchecked, it often leads to costly issues like mould and mildew, particularly around windows and exterior walls. Plus, excess moisture can compromise your home’s insulation. That’s where composite cladding comes in. This sturdy and resilient material is specifically designed to resist moisture, creating a protective barrier against water damage and ensuring your home remains dry. Keeping moisture at bay means that composite cladding goes a long way to helping your insulation perform effectively and reducing air leaks, making your living space both comfortable and energy-efficient.

Create a quieter home with sound insulation

While composite cladding might not have a direct impact on energy efficiency, it does provide great sound insulation. This can be a game-changer if you live on a busy street or in a bustling city centre, as it helps to significantly reduce noise pollution. Plus, on the other side of that, you won’t have to worry about excess noise escaping your home either, so you won’t have to worry about disrupting your neighbours. With less noise making its way in and out of your property, you may find that you don’t need to invest in additional soundproofing materials, saving you both resources and money in the long run.
