Against the alternatives

Approximate cradle-to-gate impact per m² of cladding, same area.

Timber cladding-0.7 t CO₂e
Stores carbon; renewable; reusable if detailed for disassembly.
Aluminium panel+7.4 t CO₂e
High primary energy; excellent recyclability if separated.
Fibre cement+1.3 t CO₂e
Durable, low maintenance, energy-intensive cement binder.
Concrete panel+2.2 t CO₂e
High embodied carbon; very long service life.
