What is Solid Panel Construction?
Solid Panel Construction is a panel consisting of an inner core of wood strands sandwiched between surface layers of MDF.
Why should I consider building with Solid Panel Construction?

How can a home be built so quickly?
A Solid Panel Construction constructed home can be build rapidly without compromising quality or strength, due to the pane construction method. The walls and ceilings are erected within two to three days of the slab being laid, after that, the trusses, roofing and windows are fitted.
Is Solid Panel Construction a safe product?
Triboard is a very safe product. The preservatives used in Solid Panel Construction are water based, therefore no solvents are used in the treatment process.
What are some of the advantages of your treatment compared to others?
The preservatives used are organic compounds that will naturally biodegrade in the soil. This is in contrast to some other treatments that are copper or tin based which do not readily biodegrade. Every strand which makes up the board is subjected to the preservative treatment, which ensures the treatment is distributed throughout the full thickness of the board, meaning that any cut does not need additional sealing.
