Fiber Reed

First Fiber Reed synthetic thatch


More than 25 years ago Fiber Roofing extruded and made its first Fiber Reed synthetic thatch Tile.


When we started with the synthetic thatch roof tiles we had manufactured and sold more than 1 million Cape Reed Tiles worldwide. The recipe to embed Cape Reed stalks into a Polyurethane strip had been perfected. The same tested method that had been used to embed the Cape reed thatch stalks into the Polyurethane backing strip we used to embed the Polypropylene round extruded mono-phi laments.


The Fiber Reeds artificial thatch tiles were sold via the Fiber distributor network and as “partners” together a first project let to another until these Synthetic Tiles became the first choice on projects across the globe for architects and resort developers.


Fiber Reed require 5.4 tiles per square meter to provide a smooth completely natural looking grated thatch finish.


With this, you will even convince people familiar with thatch roofing of its authenticity. Often these people will only realise that the fiber reed thatch is synthetic after physically touching the roof.   


We have the technology to match the color of our synthetic fiber reed material to any natural material or any color you want. Whether you're aiming for a specific shade or want it to mimic a particular natural look, our advanced capabilities ensure a precise match. This means our synthetic fiber reed products can seamlessly blend into various designs and preferences. Thatching cost is a significant factor, and with our user-friendly approach, we offer a wide range of colors, making it easy for you to find the perfect match for your needs.
