Merbau Ceiling & Soffit Linings

The Merbau woodgrain finish on woodgrain aluminium ceiling and soffit linings: warm reddish-brown with darker flecks - the warmth of timber, none of the upkeep.

merbau woodgrain aluminium finish woodgrain aluminium ceilings

Merbau is a familiar decking and screening timber - warm reddish-brown with darker flecks. On woodgrain aluminium ceiling and soffit linings, that grain is sublimated into a baked architectural powder coat over marine-grade aluminium, so you get the look of Merbau timber with none of the oiling, warping, splitting or rot.

Overhead, this finish lines eaves, alfresco ceilings and soffits - exactly where natural timber weathers, sags and peels first - so the grain brings warmth to the space underneath while staying flat and sound in the weather.

The look homeowners already know from decking and screens, with none of the bleeding tannins or annual oiling. As ceiling & soffit linings, it carries that character while staying non-combustible, UV-stable and dimensionally stable - the practical way to keep a Merbau look on a project that has to last.
