Quebec City, Quebec – Tando Composites announces its partnership with Eikenhout Inc. as its newest flagship dealer in Michigan. Eikenhout will stock the full line of Tando Composites products, including Beach House Shake®, the authentic composite shingle, and TandoStone®, the #1 brand of composite stone. Headquartered in Grand Rapids Michigan, Eikenhout will offer Beach House Shake and TandoStone from its 10 locations throughout Michigan in Gaylord, Grand Rapids, Lansing, Mt. Pleasant, Holland, Traverse City, Saginaw, Petoskey, Kalamazoo, and Muskegon.

“We are thrilled to partner with Tando Composites and become a Flagship Dealer,” said Erik Brooks, Executive VP, Eikenhout, Inc. “Our stocking position with Tando Composites reflects our dedication to product innovation, market intelligence, and overall customer satisfaction. Beach House Shake will give our customers the look of natural cedar shingles without upkeep and discoloration while providing unmatched performance and easy installation Our lakefront customers will especially benefit, as Beach House Shake is impervious to moisture and will stay looking like the day it was installed for the life of the home.

Brooks added, “The TandoStone product line installs like traditional siding, is impervious to moisture, and can be installed in any weather. This is big for us in Michigan! We’re confident that our partnership with Tando Composites will result in great builds for new and existing customers.”

“We are honored to have Eikenhout join the elite club of Flagship dealers for Tando Composites,” said Ralph Bruno, CEO of parent company Derby Building Products. “Like our other Flagship dealers, Eikenhout is the market leader, continually offering their customer base the best of the best.”

Unlike natural cedar shingles that discolor rapidly, unevenly, and continuously, Beach House Shake maintains an authentic, natural cedar appearance from the day it’s installed for the lifetime of the home. Its innovative composite technology offers unmatched realism and architectural precision, setting a new standard for appearance, performance, and ease of installation. Additionally, Beach House Shake is certified for High Velocity Hurricane Zones by Miami-Dade County.

 Beach House Shake is available in four styles - Atlantica, a silvery gray reminiscent of bleached cedar shingles; Sandcastle, a fresh white cedar; Hatteras, a deeper gray found in southern coastal regions; and Pacifica, a fresh western red cedar shingle.

With TandoStone, siding installers, at long last, have a stone system they want to install on every job. And with the aLL-Pro Corner, Tando Stone is the best stone system on the market. TandoStone is available in two profiles: Stacked Stone, featuring a dry stack look without grout lines, and Creek Ledgestone, resembling hand-picked stones with visible grout lines. Using standard siding tools, TandoStone can be installed in a fraction of the time compared to natural stone or stone veneer.
