What's the next advancement
in the siding market?
Beautiful, durable, low-main-
tenance exterior products like
vinyl siding remain at the top of
the list for remodeling projects.
But with savvy homeowners
exploring design possibilities
through home design TV shows,
Pinterest, Houzz and magazines,
one color and material of siding
is not enough. Coordinating tra -
ditional vinyl siding with shake
or shingle siding, stone veneer,
shutters, windows and trim is
increasingly important. As a
result, Ply Gem has expanded
select vinyl siding lines to include
premium darker colors, along
with a cellular PVC trim line,
plus stone veneer in 10 profiles
and 100 color combinations,
all from a single manufacturer.

How does your siding help
residential remodelers?
Remodelers love the new ProVia
Visualizer, an online tool that
homeowners and remodelers
can use to preview our products
on sample houses we provide, or
on their very own house photos.
The free program allows users
to create a variety of color
palette choices, and try out any
number of different styles, color
combinations and accessories.
It helps take the guesswork out
of the product selection process
so homeowners can choose with
confidence. They may even get
some inspirations they weren't
expecting.

How does your siding help
residential remodelers?
Vi n y l 's m a i n t e n a n c e - f r e e
durability and easy installation
have helped make it a leading
choice for home siding. With
the trend toward bold colors
and rich textures, The Foundry
offers homeowners dramatic
distinction with its authentic
cedar-inspired siding presented
in the industry's widest color
palette. Homeowners drawn
to the charm of hand-split
cedar siding are treated to rich
detail from the line's shakes,
shingles and shapes, without
the hassle of wood siding's
upkeep. There's no splitting,
bowing or rotting. There's also
no worry about termites, and
no scraping, sanding, staining
or painting. And, there's no
noticeable pattern repetition.
It's accomplished with a
proprietary manufacturing
process that reproduces cedar's
natural grain and random
patterns with different molds.
