“Through the Hardie™Man Challenge, th builders demonstrated how easy it is to install HardieFlex even for do-it-yourself homebuilders and how beautifully it conforms to any design preference they please. HardieFlex is the next generation in building products that does not compromise peace of mind,” said Mark.

With Typhoon Maring just leaving the country and with an average of about 20 storms entering the Philippine area of responsibility, Filipino homeowners should be careful to use only authentic HardieFlex advanced building composite.
