About Us
Spantech is an Australian construction company with unique construction systems
Spantech is a privately owned Australian construction company established in 1984. The company designs and constructs buildings using a number of rollformed construction panels and methodologies.
Patented Technology
The system features a site roll-formed construction panel with wide-span capabilities and a unique connection method. Spantech has two profile sizes: the original Woomera 300 profile can span up to 30 metres wide and the Pinkenba 370 profile, introduced in the year 2000, can span up to 40 metres wide.
Both profiles can be used for curved roofs, pitched and skillion roofs, walls or permanent formwork. In 2017 Spantech launched a brand new long-span roofing profile. The Longreach profile is available in a number of cover widths with a range of options. It has redefined the free-span roofing market. The Longreach profile can span between 12 and 18m.
Cantilever eaves can be up to 5m wide allowing Architects the freedom to explore innovative design knowing they have the support of the company that invented the profile.

Pricing Policy
We focus on value for money
Spantech products are premium quality. And when correctly applied to wide-span commercial projects, Spantech products are a great investment and represent excellent value for money.
Capital Cost
We manufacture our profiles on site to minimise transport and handling and reduce waste.
Our wide-span roofing systems significantly reduce the total amount of structural steel in the project.
Spantech construction systems are fast and very efficient to construct.
Excellent quality assurance system.
Whole of Life
The quality of Spantech roofing profiles ensures they outlast conventional roofing systems with minimal maintenance. This ensures lower Whole of Life costs of a Spantech building.
Ongoing Costs
Spantech profiles are up to three times thicker than conventional roofing. This makes our profiles stronger, span further and most importantly, last longer than conventional roofing profiles.
Conventional roofs are secured with fasteners penetrating through the profile. Each penetration is a potential cause of a leak or corrosion. All Spantech profiles connect together without fasteners. This maximises the effective life of our roofs.
Our roofs require very little maintenance, significantly reducing the whole of life costs of Spantech buildings.
Spantech’s Pinkenba 370 aluminium roofing specifically designed for water reservoirs is designed to outlast any conventional roofing system.
