Hardie Groove Lining

The durable and elegant vertical joint (VJ) sheet panels

Hardie™ Groove Lining, also known as VJ panels, offers a clean, consistent look for interior/exterior walls, ceilings and eaves, delivering the charm of traditional craftsmanship without the imperfections of natural timber. Unlike some timber alternatives, it won’t warp, split, or show knots, ensuring a flawless finish every time.

Engineered for durability and impact resistance, Hardie™ Groove Lining is ideal for high-traffic areas like hallways and living spaces. Its resistance to moisture, rot, swelling, and warping also makes it a smart choice for wet areas such as kitchens, laundries, and bathrooms (excluding shower enclosures). It’s equally suited to outdoor applications, adding elegant detail to eaves.

Available in the standard 2700mm and the longer 3000mm sheet, it offers a seamless look for tall walls by reducing horizontal joins and speeding up installation. The crisp V-grooves are 2.5mm deep and spaced 100mm apart, with cleverly designed half-grooves on each long edge for nearly invisible joins between sheets.

Laminex Architectural Panels are designed and made in Australia.
