Fibre Cement Roof Sheets

What Are They?

First up on our list of farm-friendly roofing materials are fibre cement roof sheets. One of the most popular agricultural options currently on the market, fibre cement sheets are a composite material comprised of a cement and sand mix that is reinforced with cellulose fibres.

Benefits for Agricultural Use

Durable in structure yet wonderfully smart in their finish, fibre cement roof sheets are a strong contender for the top spot on our list. These ultra-tough boards can easily withstand the conditions of a rural area, with exceptional resilience to moss, algae, and all types of harsh weather. They also offer an impressive average lifespan of up to 50+ years, meaning less replacements and less disruption to livestock and fewer expenditures. Most fibre cement boards typically price up at around R176.00 per square meter, making them a very cost-effective option if you’ve got numerous farm buildings to cover. Thanks to their larger size, you’ll also require fewer sheets in total, minimising your money, time and labour spent – three crucial factors.A brilliant choice for stables, pens and livestock buildings, fibre cement sheets are also highly resistant to temperature changes whilst also offering an enhanced degree of fresh air ventilation for any occupants within. This means that your farm-yard friends will experience a far more comfortable living environment with better internal air quality.
