Architects Trust Kleer

Your clients have discerning tastes. They want the look of real wood on the exterior of their structure, but not the inherent problems that come from using real wood in exterior applications.

Kleer is a premium quality cellular PVC that is virtually impervious to moisture and insects.  Kleer has a consistently tight cell structure from its surface through its core so it looks like real wood even when cut or milled. Not only does the Kleer manufacturing process produce a tight core, it also produces a trimboard with the tightest thickness tolerances available in the industry.  So, whether your specification calls for trimboards only, or you need to create detailed architectural elements, you can be confident the finished product will look as good as wood and will last for many years with Kleer.

And, because Kleer is so durable, we are working hard to keep it out of our landfills. Kleer has created an active recycling program and now contains a minimum 16% pre-consumer recycled material, verified and certified by Scientific Certification Systems.  When you choose Kleer you can be confident you are choosing the leader in cellular PVC product quality and consistency, product offering, training and education and environmental responsibility.
