VintageWood Smooth

VintageWood Smooth is a Nichiha architectural wall panel (AWP) in the Wood Series. Its face is a smooth board expression with deep shadow lines, giving the appearance of lap siding, and it is a fiber cement panel mounted flush rather than overlapping.

It is one of the Nichiha panels used on rainscreen wall systems, and it is engineered with a built-in rainscreen. The deep shadow lines suit custom homes and multifamily projects. The panels are used in exterior and interior applications.

Colors are White, Gray and Custom. Custom colors are made by special order and are available in both formats. These replace the natural wood tones of standard VintageWood.
