For lightweight steel framing products, zinc coatings are essential for long-term durability. Rondo’s salt spray laboratory testing puts products with inferior coatings under the spotlight.

As interior palettes move toward softer, cream-based whites, exterior elements are following suit. Boundaryline’s Frost finish provides a refined off-white fencing option that aligns with contemporary architectural palettes.

SlipSafe coating systems enable any floor surface to achieve compliant wet pendulum slip ratings under NZBC D1 Access Routes, without compromising architectural aesthetics.

Whether it’s heat weldable TPO membrane — Viking Enviroclad, or Viking’s two-layer Torch-On, both of which are CodeMark certified below 1° fall, Viking Roofspec membrane systems are designed to resolve the inherent challenges of low pitch roof design.

Roof pitch plays a fundamental role in how easily a roof manages performance. A steep pitch naturally promotes rapid water shedding, much like how the angle of a ski jump enables a skier to accelerate. In contrast, lower-pitch roofs require more deliberate design strategies to effectively manage water, airflow, and moisture.

Low-pitch truss roofs and shallow rafters — simple solutions to space constraints with Mammoth.

Neuroaesthetics — the science of how aesthetic experiences affect the brain and behaviour — offers a practical framework for design decisions. We look at soft flooring as a wellbeing tool, not just a finish.

Reliable membrane and warm roof solutions engineered to perform where roof falls are minimal — supporting compliant, durable, and efficient low‑pitch design.

Roofing Industries True Oak Corrugate and True Oak Deep profiles enable corrugate roofs to be designed at a lower pitch — perfect for matching the pitch on heritage projects or designing eye-catching new builds. 

Many paving installations begin to deteriorate within a short period of time.

Design without limits, and then specify with confidence.
