For contractors working to tight timescales, Metsä Wood's Spruce WeatherGuard panels irrespective of inclement weather offer distinct time savings, allowing work to continue onsite unhindered. The result is improved build programming and a long-lasting, high quality finish.
An excellent sheathing solution for both visible and non-visible roof applications, Metsä Wood Spruce WeatherGuard is easy to work with in conjunction with all types of timber joists. Panels can be quickly converted into even and durable surfaces, such as support plates under roofing. Unlike some alternative panels on the market, dimensionally stable, Metsä Wood Spruce WeatherGuard panels are not prone to warp or twist, so they are installed with ease and can be used as a safe working surface during roof installation too. Providing a smooth surface under roofing, installation of the final roof covering will be easier as a result.
