Metrapanel
There's no going back
The Metrapanel System is a house building system based on Metrapanel wall, floor and ceiling panels. The design and construction of the remainder of the building, comprising foundation, roof, joinery and claddings, is conventional.
The Metrapanel System was developed to create a frameless interior system which replaces timber-frame and plaster-board. The BRANZ appraisal for Metrapanel was obtained 10 years ago. In addition to BRANZ establishing that the system is structurally sound and durable, the annual BRANZ inspection ensures the processes continue to deliver good quality products that you can rely on. Projects built using the Metrapanel System are constructed by Licensed Installers throughout New Zealand. Metrapanel is a product produced by LaminexNZ where the panel is made from compressed wood fibre derived from plantation pine, and heat compressed with an exclusively formulated resin. Our re-manufacturing plant then converts the raw board to preprimed Metrapanel after applying two coats of specially formulated Resene sealant. Metrapanel's engineered 2.45m x 7.35m wood panels means there are fewer sheet joins than would be found under timber-framing and plasterboard systems — the property owner benefits from smooth, strong and durable walls, resulting in extensive cost maintenance savings over time. |
