Dura Composites’ 19mm and 25mm composite Dagger and Soffit Boards mimic the appearance of traditional timber valance and soffit boards, but are lighter, simpler to install and require virtually no maintenance over their long design life. They have been designed to meet Network Rail specification to replace old rotten wooden boards when carrying out general improvements to station platform environments, or for major works involving cutting back station canopies to allow for electrification.
Our patented design (GB 2582967) achieves a market-leading fire rating of B-s1,d0 in accordance with European Standard EN-13501-1 and provides both decorative and functional benefits. The shaping of the Dagger Boards helps to keep passengers dry whilst maintaining natural light and ventilation within the canopy. To ensure you get the best results from Dura Dagger Boards, we recommend the product is installed by a professional contractor with previous installation experience.
Dura Dagger and Soffit Boards are available in several design variants to suit the requirement of individual projects. They can be cut to virtually any shape which means Dura Composites can easily match exisiting profiles, thus retaining the character and individuality of each location.
