For three generations, the Crane family
has been in the business of designing
and manufacturing siding products. Our introduction
of Solid CoRe Siding® into the marketplace in 1998
was a watershed moment for the siding industry – the
development and marketing of a brand new siding
category. Now, the CraneBoard ® Solid CoRe System™
has taken its place on the timeline of Crane innovation
and excellence. The Crane heritage is grounded in
the American tradition of hard work, pleasure in
craftsmanship, satisfaction in a job well done.
CraneBoard is the newest addition to an entire family
of products you can depend on and be proud of, with
beauty so durable that we back it with a lifetime
warranty that is the strongest in the industry.
In 1957, the Crane company designed and
engineered the world’s first extrusion die system to
produce a solid vinyl residential exterior siding.

Smooth. Straight. Solid.
CraneBoard's 6" and 7" boards will give your
home an exceptional, architecturally correct
appearance. Homeowners tell us these wider,
straighter profiles make a home appear even
larger, and more stately.
CraneBoard’s patented CraneSpan® design
means panels cover more than twice the area
of wood, fiber cement and ordinary vinyl
siding. Compared to other sidings, CraneBoard
covers more of the wall meaning fewer gaps
for energy loss. This feature, along with its
rigid SOLID CORE backing* smoothes and
straightens walls and reduces seams.Your
CraneBoard home will stand straight, true
and maintenance-free for life.
*Quality core backing supplied by PROGRESSIVE FOAM TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

CraneBoard beauty goes deeper to deliver superior performance.
CraneBoard SOLID CORE SIDING® comes with all the insulation
you need built right in for an R-Value of 3.0-4.0 depending on product
style. CraneBoard’s SOLID CORE backing gives you more insulating
power – up to twenty times the R-Value of fiber cement and up to
four times the R-Value of ordinary vinyl siding with standard backer
board. CraneBoard is a complete insulation system, too. SOLID CORE
Architectural Essentials Accessories have got the corners and edges of
your home covered with decorative window and corner systems and
other accents that provide insulation as well as made-to-match beauty.
The CraneBoard home is more comfortable and saves you energy dollars.

Siding
CraneBoard locks out summer heat and reduces winter
cold spots. Where wall studs create a breach in insulation,
cold air can seep in. CraneBoard adds an extra layer of
protection. It covers studs and reduces thermal conductivity.
The unique SOLID CORE edges of CraneBoard
interlock to keep seams tight and flat for an
extraordinarily even, natural look. Plus, this feature helps
CraneBoard provide 17% better air infiltration protection
than vinyl siding with standard backer board.
Shhh! It’s quieter. Homeowners sleep more soundly with CraneBoard, literally. The SOLID CORE
backing deadens sound, reducing noise up to 45% compared to vinyl siding.
Performance Purple™™ SOLID CORE backing includes Perform Guard®‡ to help repel
termites and carpenter ants.
Insulating Value Comparison
CraneBoard has been specially formulated
and constructed to stand up to 240%
more impact than fiber cement, and 300%
more impact than typical vinyl siding
with backer board. It can also withstand
winds up to 130 mph. Tough beauty
that can survive an extreme impact will
endure harsh weather for a lifetime.

When correctly installed, SOLID CORE SIDING
can help meet the performance guidelines of an
ENERGY STAR qualified new home.
‡Perform Guard is a termite resistant product, not a barrier system. It should be used in conjunction with a total insect management program from a reputable pest control operator.

True Maintenance-Freedom. This is not the
“low maintenance” promised by other sidings
– it’s NO maintenance. That means you’ll
never paint – so, you’ll never scrape, never
sand, never caulk, never deal with a popped
nail either. CraneBoard promises complete
maintenance-freedom – with absolutely no
painting – ever.
No-Nonsense Lifetime Warranty. Our warranty is
unequaled in the industry. Your CraneBoard SOLID
CORE SIDING SYSTEM is warranted to remain
beautiful and maintenance-free for life – that is, for
the life of your home – as long as it’s standing.
Should you move, the warranty is automatically
transferable to subsequent owners. The look of wood
that stays beautiful for a lifetime without painting.
Period. That’s no-nonsense.
It’s the Original! Only CraneBoard gives you the Performance Purple
edge. If you don’t see Purple,** you’re not looking at CraneBoard! Our
federally registered trademark for Purple backing tells you you’re getting
the energy-saving CraneBoard SOLID CORE SYSTEM and our lifetime
guarantee of no-paint maintenance-freedom for every plank, every piece.

With ColorLife™ Fade Defense, the harshest sun, the
toughest seasons can’t touch the rich, stately beauty
of Crane color. ColorLife protects your siding for a
vibrant look that lasts.
Featuring technology. Every home needs to breathe so
that moisture vapor does not get trapped within its walls. SmartTrack
technology offers today’s educated homeowner peace of mind – the
SOLID CORE backing breathes naturally, and moisture evaporates as it
passes through the panel. Now, new patent pending SmartTrack channels
add an extra level of assurance. This diagonal grooved design guides any
excess moisture away through “release-holes” at the bottom of the panel.
SmartTrack innovation is one more reason the CraneBoard SOLID CORE
SYSTEM leads the industry with over six years proven experience in the
field and more than 100,000 homes nationwide.
NEW!
Our SOLID CORE™ backing breathes naturally... moisture vapor evaporates as it passes through
the panel. Any excess moisture is captured...
...and guided out through SmartTrack engineered channels.

The original – CraneBoard T6.
The revolution started here.
CraneBoard T6 came first to establish the beautiful
difference with its panel of three extraordinary 6"
planks. The exceptional board width and imposing
straight-face profile are still making siding history.
T6 also has CraneBoard’s authentic true-milled,
cedargrain face that is virtually indistinguishable
from natural wood – even close up. It’s beauty that’s
made to last. CraneBoard T6 also features patented
CraneSpan engineering, which smoothes and
straightens walls and reduces seams. CraneBoard’s
remarkable look and performance will last a lifetime
on your home.
Taking the beauty and performance advantages
of CraneBoard to the next dimension.
For today’s extraordinary home, wood is not an
option and fiber cement is not the solution. Now,
at last, with CraneBoard D7, you have an
alternative that gives you the authentic beauty of
true-milled cedar in a board-width that matches
cedar’s natural span and deeply shadowed profile.
Unlike wood or fiber cement, CraneBoard D7 will
never warp, never peel, never pop a nail and never,
ever need painting. It will give your home the
gracious, impressive look of real cedar – the look
you’ve always wanted – with none of the
disadvantages of deterioration.
With its wall-straightening patented CraneSpan
design, T6 and D7’s architecturally-correct board
width and straight-face profile are the premier
expression of the CraneBoard line. When you want
the most beautiful choice – and you want to be
sure the look will last for the life of your home
– demand CraneBoard.
