Ireland’s wild and beautiful landscape can throw up some real challenges when it comes to external protection. That’s why Fleetwood developed Weather Clad®, one of the most durable, resilient and weather-resistant paints money can buy. Using advanced formulas that deliver both longevity and a premium quality finish, Weather Clad is the professional’s choice for exterior paint.
At the heart of Weather Clad is the revolutionary Triple Lock System, which forms a powerful barrier against the elements. What is Triple Lock?Triple Lock represents the latest advancement in exterior protection. Delivering durability and longevity, this fundamental transition towards advanced paint technology ensures that even in the toughest conditions, surfaces are protected against water ingress, dirt, mould and moss growth, and UV damage.
The first layer of the Triple Lock protection is a flexible system that is resistant to cracking, UV damage and wind and rain, keeping colours fresher and exteriors looking better for longer. Integrated into the Triple Lock system is a powerful second layer of protection that prevents the growth of algae, mould and moss, reducing the ability for dirt to cling to the surface.
The third layer of Triple lock protection is peace of mind, with up to 18 years’ durability guaranteed. For challenging locations where exteriors are exposed to the elements, Weather Clad’s Triple Lock System is the professional solution.
That 18-year guarantee is no empty promise, either. Weather Clad has been robustly tested and has been proven to withstand the harshest weather conditions that Ireland has to offer. Standing up to Atlantic storms and exposed to hot sun, Weather Clad resists rain, sleet, and UV damage to stay looking better for longer, with some of our test panels still looking good after an incredible 25 years. No other exterior paint lasts so well for so long.
The paint contains Permacryl technology, a unique biocide that withstands microbial attack, preventing the growth of algae, mould and fungus. High-performance polymers and durable pigments provide resistance against frost and colour fading and chalking, extending the lifespan of any exterior decorating project.
