Laying Procedure

Maxiclad has a wide 815mm coverage and a low rib height of 12mm. It is an economical product to use. Wider sheets mean less number of sheets are needed to cover a chosen area.

Stratco Maxiclad is rolled to length, with a minimum length of 1.2 metres. Sheeting longer than 10 metres requires special transport, handling facilities and on site labour to assist in unloading these sheets.
