Compliance Ready

NCC 2025 Condensation Management

The National Construction Code 2025 updates (Part 10.8) strengthen the requirements for condensation control and thermal efficiency in roof assemblies and walls. These include:

Minimum 20mm clear air gap above insulation
An airflow cavity that is a minimum of 25,000mm² per linear metre
Improved access for moisture vapour to escape
Better prevention of condensation, mould and structural damage

Important: Traditional solid roll-formed galvanised steel battens do not meet the new NCC requirements.

Engineering Certification

This product meets the requirements of AS/NZS 4600 for spans up to 1200mm
