A modern facade is not just about the appearance of a house. First and foremost, it is an engineering solution designed to protect the building from climatic loads, maintain geometric stability, and require minimal maintenance for decades. By these criteria, Legro Ultra Natural, FS21, and FS15 facade systems significantly outperform traditional facade boards and classic siding.
Material and Structural Strength
Classic siding has a standard panel structure with relatively thin walls. This makes it easy to install, but also more vulnerable to mechanical stress, temperature deformation, and wind loads.
In contrast, Legro facade systems feature:
- increased board wall thickness, which directly enhances panel rigidity;
- stable geometry even under significant temperature fluctuations;
- higher resistance to impacts and long term operational loads.
As a result, the facade does not shift or deform and maintains clean, precise lines throughout its entire service life.
Protection Against Moisture and Mold
Standard siding is generally resistant to rot, but moisture can accumulate at joints or in poorly ventilated areas, leading to mold growth behind the cladding.
Legro uses a patented Ultra protective layer that provides enhanced stain resistance. This ensures complete protection against mold and fungi and zero water absorption.
These properties are especially important for regions with humid climates, snowy winters, and frequent rainfall. The facade remains dry and stable.
UV Resistance and Color Stability
One of the typical problems with siding is gradual color fading caused by sun exposure. Even high quality PVC panels lose color intensity over time.
Legro Ultra Natural facade systems provide 100 percent UV color protection and use a special multilayer coloring process with several tones of the same color. As a result, the surface looks vibrant, closely resembling natural wood, and retains its aesthetic appeal for many years.
Performance in Extreme Weather Conditions
Siding generally tolerates frost, rain, and wind well, but sharp temperature changes can cause material expansion and deformation.
Legro FS21 and FS15 facade systems demonstrate high resistance to both severe cold and heat, no cracking even during harsh winters, and stable surfaces without warping. This performance is confirmed by real projects operating in severe snowy climates.
Installation and System Approach
Siding is valued for ease of installation, but it is usually a universal solution that does not adapt to the specific design of a house.
Legro offers a complete facade system that includes:
- dedicated mounting profiles;
- clips for fast and precise installation;
- options for vertical and horizontal installation;
- easy combination of FS21 and FS15 models.
In addition, Legro facade panels can be used not only for wall cladding but also for soffits, window and door framing, and architectural accents.
Unified Exterior Style
Unlike standard siding, which often exists independently from other elements, Legro creates a cohesive ecosystem:
- facade systems that perfectly match Legro decking;
- a coordinated color palette;
- a holistic, well thought out exterior design.
Durability and Warranty
The service life of siding depends on material and operating conditions. Legro officially confirms its quality by providing a 25 year warranty on the entire facade system. This reflects a high level of confidence in the material, construction, and manufacturing technology.
Legro facade systems are not just an alternative to siding. They are a technologically superior solution.
