Composite cladding depth on garden office

Hi, what is minimum recommended depth for composite cladding on outside if a garden office? I was supposed to have 35mm depth, now my builder has told me it’s out of stock and suggested a similar colour in 10mm depth. I’m concerned it’s not sturdy or durable enough.

"Hi 10mm will be fine as long as you have a waterproof membrane behind the cladding"

"Cladding is not that thick I assume he’s talking insulation as cladding is 10 mm thick but you insulted behind it I’d say 100 mm"

"Hi, it’s 10mm cladding, breathable underlay & 25mm roofing timbers to support the cladding.
Hope this helps"
