LP siding is a type of engineered wood siding made by LP Building Solutions. It is treated with a proprietary process called SmartGuard, which adds strength and helps the product withstand impacts, freeze/thaw cycles, high humidity, and resist fungal decay and termites. LP SmartSide Trim & Siding products come in lengths up to 16 feet long, making it easier to work with longer lengths and fewer joints. LP SmartSide products come primed, making painting a breeze and allowing for 30% faster install time than fiber cement products. LP SmartSide siding is made of wood strands that have been coated with wax to resist moisture. The wood strands are also bonded with resin and other binders for durability. Finally, zinc borate is added during several points during the manufacturing process to protect against pests and rot. LP SmartSide siding can be made to feature the deep cedar grain texture and is available in a variety of styles and profiles.
