New Build developers today have seen significant changes in construction techniques in recent years. As the cost of land rises, and skilled tradesmen seem scarce construction faces numerous challenges, especially in the luxury sector.

Once low maintenance finishes were only found on Housing Association dwellings, but in recent times this expectation has moved upmarket.

Over the last two decades Orac has seen a steady rise in demand for consistently high quality mouldings that can be fitted by their standard tradesmen. Most Orac Xterio mouldings can be fitted by carpenters who are already on site. Unlike glass fibre alternatives most of the Xterio collection can be cut and planed just like wood.

In practice this means prestigious homes can now be installed with decorative mouldings that look like painted timber, but also benefit from a 10 year warranty and smart “kerb appeal”.

Choose from small mouldings like our C800 to add style to traditional dormers, or select the more substantial C836 for an imposing main eaves detail.

In seaside towns, or areas where Victorian architectural cues are followed we also offer a wide range of dentils and corbels designed to meet moth soffit overhangs. There’s no need to wait weeks for suppliers to tool up for these items, we keep them on the shelf. Most deliveries arrive on site within 3 days.

Working with traditional timber or modern composite canopies? Fed up with discolouring recycled brackets, then tap into our UV stable gallows bracket range.

All our standard products are pre-finished in RAL9003 white, matching the majority of PVCu fascia and soffit systems.
