Box profile steel cladding (aka box section or trapezoidal cladding) is a modern alternative to traditional 3″ corrugated (or wriggly tin) metal roofing sheets. Box profile is more commonly used on industrial and agricultural buildings
The strongest and most popular sheet – Profiles 34/1000 trapezoidal, sometimes referred to as box profile single skin sheet gives maximum sheet strength with 7 rigid profiles of 166mm pitch across the sheet width and 34mm profile height. It’s made from wider coated steel strip to give a secure weatherproof lap and gives 1000mm actual width cover when lapped.
Available in 0.7mm and 0.5mm sheet thickness, PVC Plastisol, Polyester paint finish and plain galvanised coated, it is also available with “Dripstop” anti-condensation membrane on reverse. This is by far our most popular profile.
Uses: Industrial, agricultural, commercial and domestic roofing and cladding. Can be used as single skin sheeting, over clad of an existing roof or part of a built up insulated system.
Benefits: Economic sheeting in a robust, rigid profile that offers high strength. We can supply very long lengths, are light in weight and fast and easy to fit. They are available in range of traditional colours and Independently tested to current CE EN 14782 requirements
Box Profile 32/1000 Sheets (for roofing and cladding)
They are lighter with a lower profile and attractive appearance. Profiles 32/1000 trapezoidal, sometimes referred to as box profile single skin sheet gives robust sheet strength with 6 profiles of 200mm pitch across the sheet width and 32mm profile height. Some users prefer the appearance of this profile as it has lower and less profiles. It’s made from coated steel strip and gives 1000mm actual width cover when lapped.
Available in 0.7mm and 0.5mm sheet thickness, PVC Plastisol, Polyester paint finish and plain galvanised coated.
Uses: Industrial, agricultural, commercial and domestic roofing and cladding. Can be used as single skin sheeting, over clad of an existing roof or part of a built up insulated system.
Benefits: Economic sheeting in a robust profile, can supply specific lengths which are also light in weight, and again fast and easy to fit. Available in range of traditional colours and Independently tested to current CE EN 14782 requirements
Sheet Types
The coated steel sheets sourced have been independently tested to current CE EN 14782 requirements. The durability of this material is dependent on the galvanised and protective coatings directly applied to the steel substrate. As a material, steel has long been used in building and has the added benefit of being recyclable. To produce high quality pre-coated sheeting a system of multi-layer coatings is applied to zinc coated high tensile steel strip and oven cured to ensure optimum adhesion. This gives a sheet with excellent corrosion resistance and climatic protection together with abrasion resistance and high strength.
The sheeting is available in 0.5mm and 0.7mm sheet thicknesses, in either 200 micron leather grain Plastisol, 25 micron polyester or plain galvanised coatings, suitable for all types of agricultural, industrial and commercial buildings.
PVC Plastisol coated A pre-finished steel sheet with a 200 micron coating of high quality PVC Plastisol with an embossed leather grain finish that gives long life, typically 15 to 25 years to first maintenance or repaint, with a life in excess of 40 years in normal environments, and a high resistance to scratching and damage.
Polyester Paint coated A 25-micron thick smooth enamel coating, economic to use and gives excellent weather resistance, typically 8 to 12 years to first maintenance or repaint with a life in excess of 20 years in normal environments, but only a moderate resistance to scratching.
Both sheet types are available in an extensive range of colours, where choice and aesthetic appeal can be matched to environmental and performance requirements. Both types use a light grey enamel coating on the reverse side.
Corrugated Profile 13/3 (for roofing and cladding) The traditional corrugated iron profile.
Profiles traditional 13/3 ‘corrugated iron’ profile. 13 corrugations of 3 inch/76mm round corrugation gives 3ft 3inch/990mm sheet cover when lapped.
Available in 0.7mm and 0.5mm sheet thickness, PVC Plastisol, Polyester paint finish and plain galvanised coated, it is also available with “Dripstop” anti-condensation membrane on reverse. This traditional corrugated iron profile has been used for over a century.
uses: Industrial, agricultural, commercial and domestic roofing and cladding. Can be used as single skin sheeting and cladding, over clad of an existing roof or part of a built up, insulated system.
When used in roof applications, construction can be safely undertaken down to a 10 degree pitch using conventional nail or self-drilling screw fixings on top of corrugated profile.
Rooflights, fixings, trims and flashings complete the system, offering cost effective traditional ‘corrugated iron’ sheet cladding.
Benefits: Robust cost-effective sheeting giving a traditional look, light in weight, fast and easy to fit,
available in range of traditional colours and Independently tested to current CE EN 14782 requirements
