CUYAHOGA FALLS, OH – In answer to homeowner demands for siding that has a natural appearance and is low in maintenance, Alside introduces its Revolution siding line.  The composite siding blends natural wood ingredients with structural polymers to give new homes and remodeling projects a durable finish that stands above the rest.

Builders and remodelers can increase their bottom line by offering homeowners Revolution because the siding line is environmentally friendly, feels like wood and requires no time-consuming painting, staining and caulking.  “Revolution fills the gap in the market for siding that is beautiful, easy to maintain, and has the look and feel of wood,” said Tom Chieffe, President and CEO of Alside.

Long-lasting Durability and Green Attributes
With Revolution siding, homeowners gain maintenance-free curb appeal and the advantages of state-of-the-art construction and exceptional durability.  Revolution’s patent-pending formulation of high-quality wood fibers and strong polymers is highly moisture resistant, making it resilient to the strongest downpour.  And its advanced co-polymer properties resist cracking and breaking, even in the coldest climates.

Made of 50% virgin material and 50% recycled content, Revolution satisfies growing homeowner demand for green products and positions builders and remodelers as active participants in the green movement.  The wood core of the composite siding carries Alside’s EnviroSmart designation for its renewable resources and for not contributing to environmental degradation or long-term depletion of natural resources.  Revolution is also silica free and meets guidelines established by green building certification programs.

Revolution’s rigid wood and polymer core construction makes it extremely impact resistant to hail and accidental impact.  In terms of durability, Revolution outperformed both fiber cement and real cedar in laboratory tests.  The siding also has a top layer polymer finish called PermaFinish that resists even the harshest weather and keeps color true.

Leading-edge Design Features
Revolution features a variety of leading-edge design characteristics that will satisfy homeowners and save installers time and money.  Its patent-pending SeamTight joining and clip system allows panels to float, which helps hide irregularities in the walls.  And its StackLock vertical joining system keeps the siding securely fastened in place – in independent tests, Revolution withstood winds in excess of a Category 5 force hurricane.

These features combine to create long beautiful course lines with no unsightly seams, nail holes or the resulting cracks.  Revolution requires only standard installation tools for a job that’s completed quickly and easily.

The Beauty of Freshly Painted Wood
Revolution has all of the appeal of freshly painted wood with no priming, painting or staining or the cost and mess associated with these coatings.  The siding features the texture and shading of natural wood grain, which adds depth and dimension for a beautiful finished appearance.  The high clapboard profile of Revolution casts deep shadows when exposed to the sun, creating  beautiful contrast and enhanced curb appeal.  Plank sizes include a Single 7" clapboard design with 6 7/8" exposure and an optimal length of 12' 6".

Revolution is backed by a lifetime limited transferable warranty and is offered in a color palette that is inspired by nature.  Colors include Glacier White, Cape Cod Gray, Coastal Sage, Monterey Sand and Tuscan Clay in a matte finish that exemplifies finished wood.
