Thatch Roofing Materials
Africa Roofing offers natural Cape Reed and synthetic Fibre Thatch materials. Natural Cape Reed is sustainably harvested and pre-fabricated into tiles, while Fibre Thatch provides a durable, fire-retardant alternative with a 50+ year lifespan. Both options cater to commercial projects requiring authentic aesthetics and long-term performance.
Commercial Shelters
Circular and oval thatched shelters are designed for commercial use in hospitality, education, and wildlife parks. These structures provide shaded areas with options for handrails and bespoke sizing. They are concreted for stability, ensuring durability and functionality in high-traffic environments.
Theming Products
Eucalyptus fencing, handrails, poles, and flooring enhance themed environments like zoos and film sets. These products combine safety with an authentic African aesthetic, using pressure-treated timber for longevity. They add cohesive visual appeal to commercial spaces requiring thematic consistency.
Entrance Canopy Kits
Waterproof timber-lined walkways and entrance canopies provide protection and visual appeal. Ideal for linking buildings or creating feature entrances, these kits are designed for easy installation and long-term resilience in outdoor settings.
Thatch Umbrella Kits
Thatched umbrella and table kits offer instant shaded seating for restaurants, hotels, and outdoor events. These practical solutions combine attractive design with functionality, providing cool, covered spaces without compromising on aesthetic appeal.
