Palm leaves are commonly used for roof thatching, a traditional construction method consisting of building roofs with dry vegetal materials. When properly installed, the leaves shed water laterally and prevent it from reaching the inner structure, while also serving as a thermal insulator. Caneplex Design cocopalm leaves are available in rolls between 60 and 100 cm high, to be installed in both residential and commercial projects.
Material Sourcing
Caneplex Design natural materials are a product of selective cultivation and specific harvest time, which have been physically dried, heat-treated and disinfected before and after insertion, and their colour is completely natural, resulting in hue variation. For each one of them, the quality control is carried out by local partners while being subjected to phytopathological inspection before and during import.
Maintenance
It is advisable to use a wood preservative (fungicide) and water-soluble (preferably) wood varnish, colourless or in close tint, initially and at regular intervals of 2-3 years. That way the material is protected from fungus, the colour does not fade straight away, it is infused and preserved beyond the anticipated time.
