Ultimate Design Flexibility

As Ultrapanel has no traditional roof trusses or purlins, ceilings can be vaulted, allowing space for mezzanine floors in some roof designs. Unlike traditional attic trusses where the roof rafters have to align with floor joists, a staircase can be positioned virtually anywhere to suit individual designs.

With the ability to accommodate dormer or inline windows, the varying Ultrapanel widths mean that windows can be placed precisely where the design demands, even above staircases to bring natural light into the floors below. With Ultrapanel, developers can create more useable, more saleable bedroom or home office space – increasing the selling price potential and appeal through enhanced designs.
