When we talk about new homes, much of the conversation naturally centres around how they look on day one.

But what about year five? Year ten? Year twenty?

That longer-term thinking is where material choice really starts to matter.

Supertech™ Weatherboard combines the appearance and character of traditional weatherboarding with the durability of fibre cement. It’s resistant to rot, fungus and insects, requires minimal maintenance and has a minimum anticipated service life of 30 years.

With its UK factory-applied finish and low-maintenance nature, Supertech™ Weatherboard is designed with life beyond project completion in mind.

A huge congratulations to Jasmine on completing her NEBOSH General Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety, having successfully passed both GNC1 and GNC2.

Building on the practical experience she already brings to her role, the qualification has given Jasmine the opportunity to deepen her understanding of health and safety and strengthen the knowledge she applies across the business.

Jasmine said:
“A lot of the course directly relates to the work I already do, so it’s been really valuable to build on my practical experience and strengthen my knowledge. I’m looking forward to continuing to learn, develop and build on this further in the future!”

Danielle Preston, Head of HR added: “This is a fantastic achievement and a real reflection of the hard work, dedication and commitment Jasmine has put into developing her knowledge of health and safety.”

They might sit behind the finished façade, but sheathing boards have an important job to do.

Different projects place different demands on the building envelope, making the choice of sheathing board an important part of the system design.

At Benx, our range of sheathing boards offers solutions for a variety of applications and performance requirements, backed by the technical expertise to help you make an informed choice.

Because what sits behind the façade matters too.

Construction programmes don’t always go exactly to plan, so knowing how your materials perform while exposed can make all the difference.

💡 Did you know our Multipurpose sheathing board can be left exposed for up to 3 months when joints are taped immediately after installation.

Need longer? For temporary exposure of up to 12 months, the RCM Joint Seal Kit is recommended.

⛳ Last week, Jim Glasscock, Branch Manager at Benx Hub Basildon, stepped away from the trade counter and onto the fairway to support a fantastic cause.

Taking part in a charity golf day in aid of St. Luke's Hospice, Basildon, the event helped raise more than £1,200 to support the incredible work they do within the local community.

A big thank you to everyone involved for making the day such a success. It's always great to see people coming together to support such an important cause 💙

Site Insight: Portland Terrace, Hurlford

Retrofit is at its best when it improves performance without erasing character.

At Portland Terrace in Hurlford, East Ayrshire Council required a façade solution that could upgrade an ageing group of bungalows while preserving its familiar timber clad appearance within the street.

Benx’s Supertech Weatherboard in Jet Black was selected to provide a timber effect finish, supported by the reassurance of an A1 rated, non-combustible fibre cement cladding system.

Installed by McConnell Ltd, the project involved stripping the original cladding back to the timber superstructure before introducing new insulation, Y-Wall sheathing boards, breather membrane, battens with cavity barriers and the final Supertech boards.

The result is a safer, warmer and more durable external envelope, delivered in a way that respects both the property and the residents.

Rainscreen façades aren’t getting simpler.

So why are we still approaching them the same way?

For architects and specifiers, designing compliant building envelopes means navigating increasing complexity, from evolving regulations to system performance and installation risk.

That’s why we’ve developed our ‘Rainscreen Façades: A Smarter Approach’ Lunch & Learn session.

Led by Sam Spencer, the session covers:
✔ The current cladding compliance framework
✔ Why rainscreen systems can be challenging to design
✔ A smarter, system-led approach
✔ Safewall® system overview
✔ Design options and flexibility
✔ Technical and specification support

These sessions are designed to provide practical insight that can support projects from concept through to specification.

If you’d like to arrange a session for your team, get in touch with Sam Spencer:

Good design should never be difficult to deliver.

Supertech™ Weatherboard combines the visual character of traditional timber cladding with the practical workability of a modern fibre-cement solution.

The planks can be cut, drilled and fixed using standard woodworking tools, helping to support a straightforward installation process. They can be installed using screws or nails, with colour-matched fixings available wherever a visible fixing is required.

Lightweight and factory-finished here in the UK, Supertech™ is suitable for a range of construction types. It provides a practical route to creating durable, low-maintenance façades without compromising architectural character.

Because a product should not only look the part. It should work for the people installing it too.
