RibRaft
< BackThe Firth RibRaft® system is becoming one of NZ's most popular solutions for residential and light commercial flooring. This innovative method of concrete floor construction is quick and efficient to lay - and it offers excellent insulation benefits.
The system uses polystyrene pods, steel reinforcing rods, plastic spacers and RaftMix™ concrete. Each of the components fit simply together, dramatically reducing labour time and costs.
Advantages of RibRaft floor system include:
- strong, energy-efficient concrete floors
- time, labour and cost savings (by eliminating the need to dig footings)
- cleaner construction, with far less excavated material and waste
