Horsebox Builders/Repairers Whats the stuff called that lines the roof!??

My box has a white coated sheeting in the roof lining but due to the roof vent leaking it has rotted and needs replacing.

It looks like white melmine coated but the wood underneath is not hardboard but looks like really thin layers of wood bonded together. What is this stuff called when I'm looking for the stuff to replace?!! Is it expensive? It looks like its around 3mm thick too.

Also the fastenings that fix it to the roof beams where can I buy these? These look like round topped screws that the tops are around one inch diameter. Not sure what these are called either!!

Glasonite? I needed some strong material to make a third partition and I went to the nearest trailer manufacturer who sold me what I needed. In fact the stuff he had was half the price and much stronger than the original..

I have just replaced all my horsebox roof with this stuff and got it from a local wood merchant for £10 a sheet. I used two much cheaper!!!
