Built for Extreme Climate
On this Page▶
When you design and build in areas with high wind load, every choice matters. Architects and contractors know that it’s not enough for a product to look good, it has to be proven to withstand hurricanes, relentless rain, and the toughest conditions. That’s why Longboard has made sure to certify for the most demanding building codes in North America: Miami-Dade, one of the industry’s most respected certifications for performance and durability.
What Miami-Dade Certification Means
This approval isn’t given lightly. Products go through extensive laboratory and field testing, designed to replicate the destructive power of a hurricane. To pass, cladding systems must demonstrate:
- Wind resistance under extreme positive and negative pressures.
- Impact resistance to debris carried by hurricane-force winds.
- Water infiltration prevention even during driving rain.
- Long-term durability in a coastal environment.
Design Without Compromise
At Longboard, we’ve always believed performance should never come at the expense of design. Our cladding systems are engineered to combine aesthetic freedom with technical excellence, giving project teams the ability to deliver spaces that are as durable as they are beautiful.
With the Miami-Dade certification, Longboard is a trusted choice for projects in hurricane-prone, high wind load regions, from high-rise towers to residential communities built to withstand the elements.
Why It Matters
Every windy season reminds us of the importance of building for resilience. Our specify Longboard knowing it brings:
- Certified strength and safety for harsh, coastal environments
- Sustainable aluminum systems that last for decades
- Architectural finishes that elevate both interiors and exteriors
It’s the balance of beauty and performance that defines every product we make.
