The Kerto-Ripa
® panel is a structural engineered timber building element made from glued Kerto
® members. It is used to create the ground, intermediate floors and roofs of residential, commercial and public buildings. Kerto-Ripa can be used in both thermo-insulated structures and non-insulated structures.
Roofing solutions
Kerto-Ripa
TM panels are an ideal solution for flat or low pitch roofs, and can be designed to the client's thermal requirements. Long clear spans (up to 18m*) are available allowing buildings to be constructed with fewer columns and beams creating greater design flexibility.
Flooring solutions

TM panels are also suitable for both ground and intermediate floors delivering clear spans of up to 9m. The panel is pre-fabricated to allow quick and simple installation, easily accommodating co-ordinated services within the floor zone. For cases where increased acoustic performance is required, The SoundBar System can be added to exceed building regulations.
