Peace of mind and cost savings for you and your family.
Supaloc® steel framed home has the potential to save thousands of dollars in maintenance and chemical termite treatments over the life of your home.
Maintenance issues can arise due to the natural behaviour of timber frames. Timber shrinks and expands according to environmental conditions at a rate that conflicts with plasterboard, causing lining surface to crack, peaking of ceiling joints and cracked cornices.
In contrast a Supaloc® steel frame is 100% impermeable to termite damage and is riveted and bolted into place ensuring virtually no movement for the life of the home.
Your home should be a healthy environment for yourself and your family. Exposure to the toxic chemicals associated with timber framing can be harmful to your family and the environment.
Termites cannot destroy a Supaloc Steel frame. Thus, in accordance with the Building Code of Australia, there is no need for the repeated use of toxic chemical treatments to defend the perimeter of the house against termite attack nor is there for the use of treated timber in the house.
Supaloc® steel framing is made from TRUECORE® steel and delivers a range of environmental benefits, both immediate and long term.
Steel frames are made from TRUECORE® steel which is 100% recyclable, and is made from a component of recycled steel. Supaloc contributes heavily to the conservation of natural resources by saving up to 100,000 trees per year*.
