James Hardie launches Scyon® in New Zealand 25 October, 2011

Scyon® in New Zealand

James Hardie unveiled a new brand to the New Zealand market this month. The culmination of years of research and development, the Scyon® range aims to counteract the fickle whims of Mother Nature.

The product range combines workability and durability with simplicity. This is achieved in the advanced cement composite of Scyon®, which harnesses the strength of the tough natural elements that would otherwise act against it. By extracting these properties, Scyon® pioneers a smarter way to build from the moment of manufacture right through to installation.

Michelle Cherrington, Marketing Communications Manager, James Hardie New Zealand, said that ‘Scyon® products not only afford their users a smarter way to build but also have this efficiency and sustainability built right in’.

By using renewable natural materials like recycled water and plantation pulp, the makeup of Scyon® ensures a viable and sustainable future for New Zealand.

The products in the Scyon® range include:

Scyon® Linea® Weatherboard: Designed with the relentless New Zealand elements in mind, Scyon® Linea® Weatherboard provides peace of mind long after installation.

Scyon® Axon® Panel: With its upright grooves and resilient makeup, Scyon® Axon® Panel is vertical engineering at its best.

Scyon® Stria® Cladding: A great alternative to brick and render, Scyon® Stria® Cladding is a modern and efficient way to achieve the decorative render look.

Scyon® Axent™ Trim and Fascia: Formerly known as CLD® Trim and CLD® Fascia, Scyon® Axent™ Trim and Fascia provide the same reliable protection on window and door trim and roof fascia that is provided by all Scyon® products.

Scyon® Secura™ Interior & Exterior Flooring: Providing protection against moisture on interior flooring and tile finished decks and balconies over timber or lightweight steel floor joists, Scyon® Secura™ Interior and Exterior Flooring is as workable as it is durable.
