Roofing, cladding and structural products manufacturer
Steadmans has launched an innovative dry verge solution to
complement Meta-SlateŽ, its unique slate-effect metal
roofing system. |
 |
| Many
tile effect lightweight metal roofing solutions are let down
by poor detailing which can detract from the overall
traditional effect required by the specifier or end user. In
particular, the highly visible verge area is often finished
using unsightly industrial style metal flashings. |
|
To overcome this Steadmans has
introduced a new low profile purpose made dry verge piece
which maintains the traditional appearance of its
slate-effect metal roofing panels. |
|
The new 300mm long interlocking
verge sections are injection moulded in UV stabilised
polypropylene material which is colour matched to the steel
Meta-SlateŽ sheeting. The verge sections incorporate a
polyethylene foam seal strip to prevent water ingress. |
|
Weighing only 6 kg/m2,
Meta-SlateŽ roof panels require less substructure when
compared to traditional slates and can be fitted onto both
steel and timber roof structures. To further enhance its
flexibility the Meta-SlateŽ system can be fitted directly to
Steadmans AS35 insulated panels to create Meta-SlatePlus for
warm roof applications. |
