100% ASA capstock (competitors use a diluted formulation that can quickly fade), a larger and more experienced product manufacturer, a more natural looking woodgrain pattern, and a proven movement-controlling design.

Is installed end-to-end like cedar clapboard and not overlapped like vinyl siding. Is installed over a weather-resistive barrier. Like most building products, may expand and contract, but minimally. The climate, moisture level, and substrate to which the siding is installed may also play a role in the amount of actual expansion/contraction.
Everlast is 547% thicker than vinyl. These interlocking planks measure out at 3/8″ thick, and will provide superior protection from the elements.
