Product Description:

 Equideck® is a long-spanning self-supporting roof panel with three features in one panel: a durable steel roof, a highly effective insulation core, and an attractive, low-maintenance ceiling. Its internal and external facings of pre-painted COLORBOND® Steel provide a high quality finish and its unique panel design means the roofing, insulation and ceiling are installed in one simple operation. Equideck® has no ceiling lining, no reflective membrane and no painting, which keeps construction time and on-site trades to a minimum.
