Moisture management is a critical consideration in building design, and COLORSTEEL DRIDEX provides an innovative solution to help combat condensation and ventilation issues, contributing to creating warmer drier and healthier internal environments for occupants.

The secret lies in DRIDEX's specially engineered anti-condensation layer, applied to the underside of COLORSTEEL roofing. This absorbent fleece captures moisture droplets as they form, holding them in place until conditions allow evaporation. The result? A significant reduction in condensation-related issues, such as dripping water, mould growth, and compromised insulation performance.

Excess moisture in buildings is a leading contributor to mould and dampness, which can negatively affect air quality and occupant wellbeing. By preventing these issues at the source, COLORSTEEL DRIDEX helps create spaces that are not only comfortable but also healthier to live and work in.

The innovative features of COLORSTEEL Dridex have seen it recognised as a Sensitive Choice product by the National Asthma Council, giving project owners reassurance that they have the right product for a drier, healthier environment.

DRIDEX also offers a streamlined installation process. By eliminating the need for traditional roofing underlays, it can help reduce complexity, save time, and enhance on-site efficiency.

Combined with the enhanced corrosion resistance and durability properties of new COLORSTEEL MAXAM with ACTIVATE Technology, it’s a solution that meets the demands of modern construction without compromising aesthetics, is made from locally sourced New Zealand Steel and comes with an industry leading warranty of up to 50 years.

Whether designing residential homes or commercial spaces, COLORSTEEL DRIDEX is redefining how moisture challenges are managed, delivering both technical excellence and healthier environments.
