What Is ASCEND Composite Cladding?
ASCEND Composite Cladding is an exterior cladding system manufactured by Alside and engineered to deliver the appearance of painted wood with significantly less routine maintenance.
Its cedar mill grain texture, defined plank profile, and broad color selection give homeowners the flexibility to create anything from a classic exterior to a more modern design.
Unlike traditional wood siding, ASCEND does not require regular repainting to maintain its factory-applied color. Its composite construction is also designed to resist moisture absorption, helping prevent problems such as rotting, swelling, shrinking, and warping.
For Greenville-area homeowners who like the appearance of wood but want a lower-maintenance exterior, ASCEND offers another option alongside vinyl and fiber cement siding.
