Choice Of Coatings
The coated steel coils we profile into sheeting and flashings are produced by leading suppliers, giving us control over quality and traceability of the material we use.
To produce the high-quality, pre-coated sheeting, a system of multi-layered coatings is applied to zinc-coated, high-tensile steel strips and oven cured to ensure optimum adhesion. This gives each sheet excellent corrosion resistance and weather protection, together with abrasion resistance and high strength.
We provide profiles with an extensive choice of colours, where aesthetic appeal and coatings can be matched to environmental and performance requirements.
Our dripstop anti-condensation membrane is available with our box profile, corrugated and tile form profiles. Please contact us for further information.

PVC Plastisol
PVC plastisol colours are available in anthracite, black, chestnut, goosewing grey, merlin grey, juniper green, moorland green, olive green, slate blue, vandyke brown and white.
Please note: colours are for guidance purposes only, actual colour may vary from image supplied. Numbers represent nearest BS/RAL reference. If you would like to see the physical colour before purchasing, please contact us for a free swatch sample.
PVC PROFILE
We manufacture PVC plastisol coated sheeting in 34/1000 profiled sheeting with a 34mm deep profile which gives 1000mm cover width which can be used at a minimum roof pitch of 4°. 32/1000 profiled sheeting with a 32mm deep profile which gives 1000mm cover width which can be used at a minimum roof pitch of 4°. 3” corrugated profile of 13 corrugations of 3 inches giving 990mm width cover which can be used at a minimum roof pitch of 10°.
QUALITY
The steel substrate has a hot dipped galvanised coating of 275 grammes per square metre. The substrate is primed and 200 microns of leather grain embossed plastisol are applied to the external surface. The reverse/ internal surface is galvanised and coated with a standard alkali grey wash coat. This gives a very long life (typically 15 to 25 years to first maintenance with a life in excess of 40 years in normal environments) with a high resistance to scratching and damage.
UV RESISTANCE
The plastisol applied consists of polyvinyl chloride based thermoplastic resins with short molecular chains for better UV resistance particularly suited to the construction sector.
HEAT RESISTANCE
Maximum continuous temperature -40°C to +80°C.
TOLERANCES
All dimensions are subject to roll forming tolerances.
THICKNESS
PVC plastisol coated sheeting is available in 0.5mm and 0.7mm thickness.
COLOUR
We supply PVC plastisol in standard colours from stock: goosewing grey, merlin grey, anthracite, moorland green, olive green, juniper green, chestnut, vandyke brown, slate blue, black and white.
