Axon is perfect for modern upper storey and ground floor extensions and is especially well suited to coastal building styles, with the vertical lines adding line, form and textural interest.

For a typical household, with its naturally insulating effect, Axon cladding not only protects your home from the elements but also keeps it warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. Discover the timeless look you’ve been seeking with James Hardie Axon cladding.
Unlike conventional board and batten, brick or weatherboard cladding, Axon cladding facilitates an easy installation process that’s far quicker to complete.
The design encompasses a stepped shiplap joint, allowing for a seamless finish between all the panels. Axon cladding is available in a range of lengths to accommodate all sizes of homes, as well as commercial build projects for a seamless finish.
They’re cut to size with a dust-reducing cement blade and typically are attached with a nail gun to affix them to the exterior walls of your home.
Aside from a smoother and more streamlined install, the material itself is also remarkably lightweight. Should any panels ever need replacing far down the line, they can be easily removed, and a new one can be attached in their place. This lightness is also better for your home as cladding isn’t load-bearing, meaning less weight puts less pressure on the structure and foundation of your house.
Whether you’re employing a contractor or ordering cladding for a client, James Hardie Axon cladding makes the installation process simple and efficient.
Your final result will be hassle-free and have a beautiful, resilient, and versatile finish.
