Lemonwood School banner

Lemonwood Grove School (Te Uru Tarata) in Christchurch used Kāhu® in beautiful Kowhai Glow and Ebony from COLORSTEEL®. Kahu® was used in conjunction with prefabricated, pre-lined timber framed wall and roof panels. This was a fairly new school design in New Zealand and allowed the project to be handed over 6 weeks ahead of schedule.

Kāhu®:
Kāhu® is designed for an elegant look with style and extra performance in mind. The symmetrical ribs create strong defined shadow lines giving a sharp finish.

Greater Weather Performance:
Greater weather performance is achieved with the double capillary overlap as it provides an extra capillary barrier to the standard capillary groove, giving you extra peace of mind.  Kāhu® only requires a one rib lap. This increases the cover sheet size and speeds up installation time, providing for a cost-effective roofing and cladding solution.
