The right product for the right application

ITI Australia has had a long history of delivering high quality, innovative structural building products to the Australian marketplace. Ensuring quality, sustainability and innovation offers you peace of mind that the structure of the building is going to stand the test of time.

Choosing the right product for your home or building project can be a daunting process and at ITI Australia we understand that.

In recent times the selection of products or components has become a mine field of environmental responsibility, product conformity & compliance and a general challenge trying to determine if multiple products that look the same are accredited to be used in the same application.

The Australian Building Codes Boards defines that all persons or companies in the supply and building chain are responsible for ensuring the correct products are used in the correct application and that the products demonstrate compliance with the National Construction Codes. This includes the manufacturer, or importer, the building product suppliers, the builder, the building surveyor and the home owner.

The easiest pathway to navigate this monumental task is to select products distributed by ITI Australia.

That is why at ITI Australia there is a product in our range for every application. We have you sorted at ITI!

Design Link: An environment of design, technology and processing

ITI Australia’s service offer surpasses providing quality, conforming building materials. With the ongoing implementation of complimenting technology, ITI can provide building professionals with a plan to site building solution for structural timber floor and roof systems.

Some of the features of Design Link include:

Docked to length timber components: Remove the demand of determining the lengths of materials during installation. Eliminate the posibility of cutting the wrong piece of timber and get the components installed faster.

Pre-cut service holes: Toilets, heating, rangehoods and exhaust fans can all be pre-cut into ITI’s range of I-Joists. Assessed and located in the correct locations to avoid any guessing which may occure onsite.

The Latest Innovation in Cement Floor Boards

Based on the latest advancements in cement and fibre-reinforcement technology, OxyMag 16mm & 19mm floor boards are STRONGER, LIGHTER, CHEAPER & SAFER than Fibre Cement boards. Notably, OxyMag floor boards have a greater flexural bending strength than thicker, heavier Fibre Cement (FC) boards. This results in a load capacity that is greater than FC boards.

Independently tested and certified to meet NCC/BCA DEEMED-TO-SATISFY structural requirements for floor loadings to AS/NZS 1170.1 Table 3.1. See OxyMag Design & Load Tables* for more information

Suitable for RESIDENTIAL & LIGHT COMMERCIAL applications - see Design & Load Tables*

Suitable for INTERNAL, EXTERNAL and WET AREA applications

NON-COMBUSTIBLE per AS 1530.1

Less than 1% Crystalline Silica - Thus, safe/non-hazardous for workers to use/cut and not subject to Safe Work Australia's stringent work requirements.

Tongue-and-grooved for easy installation

Can be fixed with screws or a nail-gun

Green and eco-friendly production

Mould, rot and termite resistant

Free of potentially corrosion inducing chloride ions

From December 2023, we are transitioning to have all OxyMag floor boards supplied with OxyMag-branded selfadhesive builder plastic adhered to the rough side of the boards (which must face up) in order to provide temporary weather/water protection to the boards.

Tested to relevant Australian Standards - see Physical Properties Schedule*

Cement Solutions

STRONGER | CHEAPER | LIGHTER | SAFER

OXYMAG FLOOR BOARDS OUTPERFORM TYPICAL FIBRE CEMENT FLOOR BOARDS

Stronger - OxyMag floor boards are fibreglass reinforced and, thus, have a superior flexural bending strength relative to typical FC floor boards. As a result, OxyMag offers floor solutions using both 16mm and 19mm thick boards which are comparable to thicker FC floor boards - See tables below.

Lighter - OxyMag floor boards are up to 7kg lighter per board than comparable, thicker FC floor boards. This results in easier handling and faster installation.

Cheaper - By replacing FC floor boards with OxyMag floor boards, the builder can benefit from significant material cost savings. Easier handling and faster installation will also reduce labor costs.

Less than 1% Crystalline Silica (CS) = Not Hazardous - CS, when inhaled as dust particles, is a significant health hazard to workers which can lead to serious lung diseases such as silicosis and lung cancer. Fibre Cement boards contain significant levels of respirable CS and, thus, their use must adhere to the stringent work requirements issued by Safe Work Australia in order to keep workers safe. In contrast, OxyMag boards contain less than 1% CS and, thus, they are safe for workers to use/cut and Safe Work Australia’s stringent work requirements do not apply.

More Versatile - 16mm and 19mm OxyMag floor boards can be used internally, externally and in wet areas. Both OxyMag board thicknesses can be used for residential applications while 19mm OxyMag boards can also be used for light commercial applications. One board - multiple applications.

Greener Production Process - OxyMag floor boards have significantly less embodied energy than FC boards.
