Bare look fibre cement express joint cladding
Barestone Original Cladding
Key Features
Barestone Original Cladding combines the natural beauty of concrete with the durability of fibre cement, making it perfect for modern and industrial designs. Barestone Original Cladding has a blend of warm greys and light greys. The dark valleys of the modern express joints juxtapose these light colours. This helps the geometric shapes created by the joints dominate the aesthetic.
This versatile cladding enhances both facades and interior feature walls, with the express joints providing clean lines and dynamic patterns. Panels can be oriented vertically or horizontally and arranged in various layouts like Linear, Grid, or Random.
Barestone’s warm tones pair effortlessly with other materials, especially timber accents like Territory Woodlands Teak. Available in three products—two exterior with Ceminseal and one interior with stain resistance—each panel is unique, offering natural variation in colour and pattern that adds character.

Technical Information
Barestone Original Cladding Installation
External Installation
There are two exterior cladding systems, one for commercial buildings and one for detached homes.
- Commercial buildings. Use the versatile Commercial ExpressWall® top hat fixing system. It creates a Pressure Equalized Ventilated Cavity System to enhance weather resistance and moisture management.
- Detached homes. Use a conventional and cost-effective practice of installing the panels onto timber battens.
Internal Installation
Fix panels to timber, non-structural light gauge steel framing, masonry, concrete, and other suitable substrates in two ways.
- Concealed fixing. Adhesive products are used to install to timber or steel studs.
- Exposed fasteners. Exposed head screws or Barestone rivets can be used on steel studs.
For peace of mind, Barestone Original is CodeMark Certified CM20198. Panels can be used whenever a non-combustible material is required by NCC2022 Clause C2D10 (6)(d) [NCC2019: C1.9 (e)(iv)].
The Barestone wall system can achieve a Bushfire Attack Level of up to BAL40 when constructed in accordance with Australian Standard AS3959 and Cemintel’s design and installation guides.
