Gentek Siding

Gentek Siding

Gentek Building Products, based in Akron, Ohio, is a manufacturer of aluminum, steel, and vinyl building products. The company has manufacturing plants throughout the United States and Canada. Gentek's product line includes siding and accessories which include soffits, trim coil, fascia, and rainware.

Gentek offers a wide variety of siding products in comparison with most other siding manufacturers. Homeowners have the choice of three different siding materials, and each has its advantages. As a siding material, aluminum is lightweight, requires little maintenance, and is cost-effective. Steel siding is one of the strongest, most dent-resistant, and longest-lasting siding materials, while vinyl is inexpensive, easy to maintain, and can be painted any color desired.

Aluminum siding products in the Gentek lineup are sold under three brands:

• Cedarwood, a premium siding product, has the look of natural cedar but is durable and comes with a limited lifetime warranty;
• Deluxe, a white-colored standard-grade siding with a special finish which resists marring and scuffing; and
• Woodgrain Series 2000, a builder-grade siding product which is available in a wood-look finish with the same special scuff-resistant finish as the Deluxe line of siding.

The steel siding products within the Gentek siding category comprise four brands, all at a premium grade:

• Driftwood, which features the weathered look of seashore driftwood and comes with a limited lifetime warranty;
• SteelSide, a clapboard-look steel siding with an authentic wood-grain texture;
• SteelTek, which features an oven-fused PVC coating for a more durable finish than paint or conventional coatings; and
• Universal, which is available in different textures including a vertical board-and-batten look.

Gentek siding in vinyl is available in a wide variety of brands, which include:

• Sequoia Select, an ultra-premium siding available in extended length and board-and-batten styles;
• Signature Supreme, a heavy-duty specialty siding with an extra-deep butt height;
• Advantage III, which features deep shadow lines and a narrow profile;
• Berkshire Beaded, an old-world style siding with a sculpted beaded ridge;
• Fairhaven Sound, which features the look of authentic cedar shakes or scallops;
• Concord, an economically-priced builder line of siding with four profile choices; and
• Aurora, which features a driftwood look in a choice of two profiles.
