Six core disciplines. One uncompromising standard.

We have been constructing thatched roof structures for the past two decades and have since been established as world leaders in this field.
Radiating a touch of nature, ambience and undeniable beauty, there's a distinct stylish charm that goes hand-in-hand with a traditional thatched roof.

Timber is the most widely used building material in the world – it's versatile, environmentally friendly, lightweight, affordable and with the proper timber treatment, can last for many years.
Cape Reed prides itself in selecting the very best quality sustainable timber in all our projects.

Modular thatch tiles are pre-fabricated off-site for rapid installation, easy maintenance, and the natural warmth of cape reed.
Individual tiles can be replaced without disturbing the surrounding roof — reducing the cost and disruption of future maintenance.

Cape Reed International is proud to present a unique fire retardant in the form of Cape Reed Fireshield.
This specially formulated chemical can be applied to thatch, timber and various other materials to significantly increase resistance to fire.

Our design team is a dynamic group of highly skilled and experienced professionals that forms a crucial link between the sales team and the operations team.
They are closely involved in every construction that is completed by Cape Reed International, from client briefing right up to the end product.

Traditionally, a thatched roof would be covered by a natural product but as with so many things these days, we can't ignore the advantages of synthetic materials in modern construction methods.
Cape Reed Synthetic thatch aims to combine natural aesthetics with the benefits of synthetic thatch.
From the harvest of raw cape reed to the handover of a complete resort development, Cape Reed International controls every stage of the process. Our six service areas reflect 25 years of refinement — each one developed to solve a specific challenge in outdoor architecture.
