Parallel Architectural Products and Cladiator

Parallel Architectural Products’ cladding and soffit systems combine the aesthetic appeal of traditional wood with the superior durability and low-maintenance benefits of powder-coated and sublimated extruded aluminum. Designed for both exterior and interior applications, this superior cladding and soffit solution adds beauty and longevity to any project. Available in 4", 6", 8" and 12" widths with multiple trim options for a seamless appearance.

Based on an interlocking system comprised of a handful of core components, Parallel cladding and soffit systems can be adapted to nearly any building design or architectural vision. Cladding can be installed bottom up or top down, making future repairs easy. Each component is standardized in imperial measurements, so you’ll have exactly what you need, every time. Our systems integrate seamlessly with modern architectural designs while providing superior performance that stands the test of time.

Parallel Architectural Products’ batten system doesn’t just make a bold architectural statement—it revolutionizes any space with its cutting-edge design and unparalleled quality. Whether you’re looking for solid colors or with a woodgrain effect, our solutions bring functionality and style to every project. With two batten systems, two-part, and self-mating, our batten systems are designed for easy installation, enabling effortless integration of aluminum battens into your design, whether as an exterior focal point or interior privacy screen.

The two-part batten system comes in sizes ranging from 1″ × 3″ to 2″ × 8″ (1″ × 3″, 1″ × 4″, 1″ × 6″, 2″ × 2″, 2″ × 4″, 2″ × 6″, and 2″ × 8″). It uses a combination of male and female profiles to create your desired look without visible fasteners. These battens can be installed in various configurations, including angled layouts, to meet your structural needs. Our NEW self-mating system, available in 2″ × 2″, 2″ × 4″, 2″ × 6″, and 2″ × 8″ profiles, features Simple Snap Technology — each profile snaps together with itself for a more streamlined installation process and flexible orientation options, including flat-lay.
