Smart Cladding Choices to Reduce Graffiti Risks
.png&w=3840&q=75)
As graffiti rectification costs continue to climb, architects and specifiers are rethinking façades at the design stage, not just the maintenance stage
As graffiti vandalism becomes more prevalent and costly, façades must do more than simply look good. They must resist tagging, shed pigment and withstand the removal process without damage. Passive design strategies and target-hardened materials have moved beyond theory into mainstream specification, offering effective protection against vandalism at scale.
Specifying a graffiti-resistant cladding solution requires balancing durability, cleanability and aesthetic expression. Our Vetérro Core fibre cement cladding features a non-porous coating that stops paint from bonding to the surface – tested against EN Standards for scratch resistance and backed by a 10-year warranty – delivering a genuine "set and forget" solution that protects both the building's appearance and its long-term value.
