  • Highly resistant to rot and atmospheric pollution
  • Promotes healthy attic ventilation to reduce moisture
  • Easy to cut and fit for standard roofline systems
  • Backed by a 10-year manufacturer's guarantee

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For installation, ensure that your existing rafter ends are sound and provide a straight, level fixing surface. The boards should be secured using suitable stainless steel pins or nails to prevent corrosion and staining. While the product is highly resistant to elements, you can keep the white finish looking fresh by cleaning it occasionally with a soft cloth, warm water, and a mild non-abrasive detergent. Avoid using solvent-based cleaners or sharp tools that could scratch the PVC surface. Always store the 5-meter lengths flat and in a cool, dry area before installation to prevent bowing or heat deformation.
