RIBRAFT2 PP2

RibRaft®

Twenty years ago Firth created RibRaft® - New Zealand’s first pod floor system. The Firth RibRaft® system has now become one of NZ's most popular solutions for residential and light commercial flooring. This innovative method of concrete floor construction sits 'on' the ground not 'in' the ground making it seismically strong. The system uses polystyrene pods, steel reinforcing rods, plastic spacers and RaftMix concrete. Each of the components fit simply together, dramatically reducing labour time and costs.

Plenty have tried to replicate the original, but there is only one RibRaft® floor, and only Firth RibRaft® carries a CodeMark® certificate.
