Sleek appearance
The Cairo profile, also known as channel siding, offers a beautiful result for facade cladding. This profile is used vertically and provides a luxurious variation on the facade. Compared to the Hanoi profile (half-timber rabbet), the Cairo profile has a slightly sleeker appearance, thanks to the smaller curves. By applying the profile staggered and in different lengths to the facade, a beautiful and playful effect is created. The Cairo profile has a tongue-and-groove system with different widths, which ensures an ideal drainage profile. This versatile profile can be made in different types of wood, with Accoya and Padouk being the most popular options. Accoya, with its durability and limited effectiveness, is particularly suitable. In addition, Thermo Fraké and Oregon Pine are possible types of wood for vertical mounting with this profile. The Cairo profile is often used for facade cladding, sheds and garden houses.
