Today, the facing panels have been distinguished by a variety of colors.
The most popular at the moment is metal siding for wood.
The facing panel of this type has a pattern imitating the surface of the tree.
This siding is suitable for finishing the facade of a wooden house. It allows you to create the illusion of a house built of logs.
Even a house built on a frame structure will look like a wooden frame.
Metal siding for wood is made of quality galvanized metal, on the surface of which is applied a strong polymer film.
It can be executed in any color scale, which the customer can choose a client from the proposed catalog.
Most often, customers choose metal siding, imitating a block house. This trim panel is painted under a tree using the offset printing method.
Metallosiding of this type can have a different length, from 0.5 to 6 meters. But it is best to choose a length of 3 to 4 meters.
The full width of the panel is 211 mm, and the useful width, which can be seen after installation, is 118 mm.
With the help of a metal panel under the tree, it is possible to significantly reduce the cost of finishing the facade.
After all, after facing the building with metal panels painted under a tree, you do not have to update the façade every time, tinting it with varnish, as it would be necessary when installing a lining made of natural wood.

Advantages of
Advantages of metal siding for wood:
- Environmental safety. Such material is absolutely safe for human health and for the environment;
- Durability, reliability and economy. The facade, finished with metal siding for wood, will last from 50 to 70 years;
- Flameproof. Metal siding with vinyl cover does not burn, unlike the wooden facade;
- Resistance to corrosion and other aggressive environmental influences;
- Resistance to temperature changes;
- Mechanical strength;
- Ease of installation;
- Low coefficient of thermal expansion;
- Resistance to fading.
Metal siding for wood, the price of which is quite democratic, does not require reinforcement of the foundation.
After all, this material is easy, so the load bearing on the foundation remains the same after facing the facade.
It's easy to look after the facade. It does not have to be renewed constantly. It will be enough just to wash it with water to give it an original look.
Metal siding, imitating a wooden surface, is specially equipped with various additional elements that allow creating a complete illusion of a wooden house.

This facade material will give the house an attractive appearance and reliably protect the walls from aging. With it, you can significantly reduce the cost of building maintenance.
Metal siding can be ordered with different coatings.
Polyester coating is very popular. It can be made in different colors.
The only drawback of polyester is its susceptibility to mechanical damage.
Therefore, the installation of such panels must be carried out in a protective film, which is removed only after installation.
Coatings of metal siding
Frosted polyester has a beautiful appearance. Its velvet surface does not have a shine.
The thickness of its deposition on the metal surface is slightly thicker than usual polyester.
Frosted polyester does not shine and gives the house a noble look.
The thickest coating is plastisol, which has a matte surface. It is resistant to mechanical damage. Such siding will not be scratched by branches.
Polyurethane perfectly withstand high temperatures. Its thickness is 50 microns, which is twice the thickness of conventional polyester.
Therefore, such a coating on metal siding will not scratch.
In addition, polyurethane can withstand heating up to 120 degrees. Therefore, metal siding with polyurethane coating is best suited for the southern regions of Russia.
Printech is a new metal coating on which a pattern is applied. This technology for printing on a metal is called "photo-offset".
The advantage of this technology is the large color variety. You can use this application to order a siding "under the tree" or "under the stone."
Why is metal siding better than vinyl?
The advantage of metal siding, of course, is strength. It tolerates mechanical damage well and will not be damaged even during installation in the winter.
Unlike metal, vinyl siding in the frost becomes very fragile. It can cause damage during installation in the winter.
Metallosiding practically does not expand when heated and does not deform. Vinyl siding has a coefficient of thermal expansion 10 times higher than that of metal.
It must be properly mounted on the crate, otherwise, it will go in waves.
During installation, metal siding does not require special conditions, while installation of vinyl siding must be carried out according to strict rules.

A nail in a vinyl siding should be driven into a special hole for a certain distance.
The color choice in metal sizing is much wider than that of vinyl. You can finish the facade in different colors.
The outer decorative layer of metal siding has a high resistance to fading, while in the low-cost vinyl siding the color palette is more limited.
Vinyl siding with a richer color selection is much more expensive than a metal one.
Metal siding with painting under a stone or a tree is economical, not combustible and easy to clean. All these advantages are absent in the vinyl analogs
