Utilise Metrapanel ceilings as the 'Falling from Heights" safety solution for your next project! The future of the building industry means creating a bracing element with the ceiling. There is no wastage, the ceiling acts as a diaphragm which can be used for the internal bracing element with the walls, as well as providing FREE space in the attic which is safe to work on and maxim storage space.

According to PrefabNZ bad weather can cause delays of more than 13% of construction time, however a solid ceiling provides a weather tight lid over the build so as soon as wrap is installed, the frames can begin the drying process even before the roof is on. With a selection of finalist placings in industry health and safety awards and the ability to be utilised on steel or stick frame builds, a Metrapanel ceiling is the obvious choice.
