How Roof Cassette Systems Offer Improved Speed, Safety & Performance.
By using pre-built roof cassettes, builders no longer need to construct complex roofing structures on the job. Our roof cassettes provide the perfect timber rafter solution because we make them to specification before delivering them straight to the installation site. However, saving time on-site is just one of the many benefits of using roof cassettes. Let’s look at some more.
Ease of Installation
Prior to delivery, cassettes are numbered and can be loaded and installed sequentially to speed up erection. They are then easily lifted into place and secured.
Thermal Performance
Roof cassettes provide an enhanced energy performance compared to traditional roof construction methods. Rigid, blown or quilt insulation can be fitted inside the voids to further improve thermal efficiency. Less air leakage is achieved, making for a warmer, drier environment.
Less Waste
With every product we manufacture, wastage is minimised by careful calculation and precision manufacturing processes. We also use responsibly sourced, sustainable timber. This essentially protects the environment and eliminates waste on site.
Safer to Work With
Since there is less manual work required on site, there is less time spent working in higher risk areas during construction. Health and safety is always important of course, but at the very least, this becomes less of a concern when working with roof cassettes.
More Living Space
Larger room-in-roof areas are possible because rafters can be ‘top hung’. This eliminates the need for hangers. Longer spans than solid timber is also easily achievable which means that fewer interim supports are required.
