The 4 Different Components of SmartGuard®

Your home’s siding is one of the most important components of your home and as such, it’s vital that you only get the best of the best. According to professionals, there are many siding brands out there that can meet your home’s needs and one of these siding brands is LP® SmartSide®, an incredibly durable product that is manufactured with an innovative process known as SmartGuard®. In fact, experts say that SmartGuard can help LP SmartSiding siding products withstand the worst elements thanks to its four components.

In this post, siding and roof installation services provider Creative Construction Group discusses the four components of SmartGuard.

 

1. Advanced Binders – LP SmartSide Trim and Siding are said to have one of the strongest impact resistance in the market. This is all thanks to the industrial-grade advanced binders and resins that SmartGuard adds to the product, which allows it to withstand the impact of objects such as golf balls and hailstones.

2. Waxes – According to siding experts, SmartGuard adds a coat of special water-resistant waxes to each strand of wood fiber that is used in manufacturing LP SmartSide siding products, allowing it to have better durability in rainy and humid environments. This in turn makes the siding more moisture resistant, preventing rotting and mold growth as a result.

3. Zinc Borate – Another SmartGuard component that helps it protect LP SmartSide siding is the zinc borate. By including zinc borate in the siding’s manufacturing process, it can help your siding resist termite damage and fungal decay more effectively, allowing it to last for longer than usual. To install an LP SmartSide siding product in your home, don’t hesitate to turn to licensed roofing contractor Creative Construction Group for assistance.

4. Resin-saturated Overlay – The final SmartGuard component the resin-saturated overlay, a component that allows it to resist moisture infiltration and provide a durable base for paint adhesion at the same time.
