James Hardie plank siding is a product of James Hardie Industries. Doing business since 1888, James Hardie Industries pioneered the development of fiber cement technology about 100 years later in the 1980s. James Hardie is now a fiber cement business exclusively and the company is at the forefront of the industry. One of the premier products of James Hardie is Hardie Plank Siding, the #1 brand of house siding in North America. It is installed on 4 million homes across the United States as well as homes all over the Atlanta, Georgia area.

To give you the best selection of durable colors, James Hardie Plank siding is available with their exclusive ColorPlus technology.

As a matter of fact, the ColorPlus technology of Hardie Plank siding is designed to last up to twice as long as traditional paint.
