Multirib

DESCRIPTION

Multirib™ is a medium height, long run roofing and cladding profile designed primarily for industrial and commercial applications.
Multirib™ is also suited for roofing applications on low pitch residential projects.

Multirib™ provides numerous benefits to the architect, including clean lines and innovative design features offering superior strength and spanning capability over similar profiles. Installed as roofing and cladding on many of New Zealand’s larger scale projects, Multirib™ exhibits equally impressive aesthetics when used in a traditional profile shape, or alternatively, as “reverse run” as an option for wall cladding ensuring the building designer only has to concern themselves with one roof and cladding profile.
