Cairo profile
The Cairo profile, also known as channel siding, offers a beautiful result for vertical facade cladding with a sleek finish. Read on to discover the specifications, available wood types and applications of the Cairo profile.
The Cairo profile, also known as channel siding, offers a beautiful result for facade cladding. This profile is used vertically and provides a luxurious variation on the facade. Compared to the Hanoi profile (half-timber rabbet), the Cairo profile has a slightly sleeker appearance, thanks to the smaller curves. By applying the profile staggered and in different lengths to the facade, a beautiful and playful effect is created. The Cairo profile has a tongue-and-groove system with different widths, which ensures an ideal drainage profile. This versatile profile can be made in different types of wood, with Accoya and Padouk being the most popular options. Accoya, with its durability and limited effectiveness, is particularly suitable. In addition, Thermo Fraké and Oregon Pine are possible types of wood for vertical mounting with this profile. The Cairo profile is often used for facade cladding, sheds and garden houses.
The Cairo profile is directly in stock in Accoya. For immediate delivery we have the 18x130mm Cairo profile from Accoya in stock in lengths of 420 cm and 480 cm.

Hollands Hout (Staatsbosbeheer) has developed an outdoor collection of larch cladding in collaboration with Boogaerdt Hout. Larch Dutch Wood comes from the Dutch forests of Staatsbosbeheer. It has a good natural durability and can be finished with various paint systems. The first outdoor collection line available is produced from spin-free Larch. The quality is optimized by finger-jointing the parts under KOMO and is therefore available in longer lengths. Larch Holland wood can be finished with mineral paints from KEIM, which has developed a colour palette especially for Larch Holland Wood. The Larch Holland Wood has been tested in End-USE for an open façade, including this finish, and achieves fire class D-s1,d0. A closed façade can also be equipped with fire class D. Other paint systems are currently being tested.
