Alcoa Vinyl Siding #
Mastic made a huge breakthrough in the home siding market when in 1959 it invented vinyl siding. Today, in partnership with Alcoa, Mastic creates durable, attractive, low-maintenance vinyl that is used on 1 out of every 4 homes remodeled with vinyl siding. The features that make Alcoa vinyl siding so popular include:

- Selection: While the performance of your home siding is important, Alcoa ensures that you don't have to sacrifice beauty for reliability. Choose from dozens of Alcoa vinyl siding colors and numerous designs, including traditional vinyl and vinyl that imitates real wood shake, shingles, and half rounds.
- Value: Save time, money, and hassles by installing Alcoa vinyl siding which, unlike wood, won't crack, rot, flake, peel, or become infested by insects.
Alcoa Aluminum Siding #
While aluminum siding has lost some of its market share to vinyl, Alcoa's "best in industry" Performance Metals are second to none for reasons that include the following:
