Swisspearl Plank is a fibre cement facade system composed of cement, mineral aggregates, and reinforcing fibres, developed to provide a durable and dimensionally stable cladding solution for external applications. The boards are typically installed as part of a ventilated rainscreen system, allowing moisture to dissipate while protecting the building envelope from weather exposure. With a smooth or lightly textured surface and a consistent factory-applied finish, Swisspearl Plank offers a controlled architectural expression suited to both horizontal and vertical applications.

The product is supported by a third-party verified Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) in accordance with EN 15804 and ISO 14025, providing transparent life cycle assessment data. Its composition and manufacturing process are designed to support long service life and low maintenance requirements, reducing the need for replacement and associated material use over time. The ventilated facade system can also contribute to the durability and performance of the building envelope, supporting long-term environmental performance.
