Fibre Thatch is a simulated thatch made from UPVC Polymer, and comes in an easy-to-use tile format.
Fibre Thatch tiles are quick and easy to install – no special tools or skills are needed. The tiles can be clipped onto an 8mm diameter steel rod or rope, or nailed onto a wooden batten using rust-free nails or staples. The tiles are installed in layered courses at 5.4 tiles per square meter. The minimum suggested pitch is 25 degrees – much lower than traditional thatch materials. A sub-roof of marine ply and felt is also recommended.
Although a synthetic product, Fibre Thatch creates a smooth, completely natural looking thatch finish that is only identifiable as artificial if physically touched.
