Built with long lasting materials: for any timber touching the ground we use H4 Treated Pine, in accordance with the NZ building code. All hardware and fixtures are Galvanised. We use Polycarbonate Roofing Sheets which have 99.5% UV protection.
Nutopia Greenhouses are available in a range of sizes, plus you can choose your own Stain and Paint options, and add Garden Beds, a Potting Bench and a Automated Roof Vent. And because it it made of strong timber, you can also make your own additions eg benches, shelving, trellis, tool racks, shade house.
Thats right, you don’t have to try to put these up yourself or organising someone to do it for you, happy days! Reasonably easy access and a level site is required. Available to most regions, check out our Installers locations here.
Macrocarpa is one of the most naturally durable softwoods grown in NZ, and is resistant to insect and borer attack. It contains natural oils that give it the same treatment ratio as H3.2. Macrocarpa will weather to a beautiful soft silver grey.
Please note that Macrocapra isn’t always available, please enquire
