Cerber's fiber cement siding plants specialize in factory finishing. The primary advantages of Cerber's factory finish process are lower costs and a controlled application environment that utilizes advanced coating technologies not available in older processes or field applications. Cerber's siding prestaining division has been in business for over 30 years. Cerber has plants in the Pacific Northwest and the Midwest to serve customers nationwide. Cedar siding was Cerber's first line and while they continue to produce premium quality prestained cedar siding they now also offer fiber cement siding. Modern trends have encouraged siding customers to explore alternatives to traditional wood siding such as long lasting, low maintenance, fiber cement siding. Cerber Siding's prestain facility now employs almost 150 people in the production of both their fiber cement siding and in prestaining traditional cedar siding.
