Cladding & Roofing Materials
Metal is often used for non-structural cladding systems to provide weather protection and enhance the building's exterior appearance. Its flexible nature allows for various ways to join and fasten panels, each with its own benefits regarding installation and appearance.
Metal cladding includes different materials, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. When choosing a material, consider factors like the desired look, climate conditions, structural system, surrounding materials, and budget.

Zinc
Zincalume
ALUMINIUM
Aluminum is a popular cladding material for modern buildings due to its natural resistance to rust and blistering. It boasts a high strength-to-weight ratio, allowing for lighter façade attachment systems compared to those made from steel.
BRASS
Brass, an alloy of copper and zinc, is valued for its gold-like appearance, malleability, corrosion resistance, and antimicrobial properties. Durable and elegant, it’s a popular choice for cladding, adding sophistication to structures.
COPPER
Copper is a ductile, malleable metal valued for its thermal conductivity, luxurious appearance, and corrosion resistance, making it ideal for cladding in construction. Its color-changing patina, durability, and antimicrobial properties offer a sustainable, cost-effective solution for both new builds and renovations.
CORTEN (WEATHERING STEEL)
Corten (Weathering Steel) is a durable, corrosion-resistant alloy ideal for heavy-duty applications. Its rust-like patina requires minimal maintenance, lasting over 40 years while adding character to modern designs.
Galvanised Steel, with its durable zinc coating, offers corrosion resistance and a lifespan of up to 50 years, making it ideal for cladding and roofing. Its industrial look, reliability, and low maintenance suit extreme weather, while hot-dip galvanising ensures full coverage and easy installation.
GALVANISED STEEL
STAINLESS STEEL
Stainless Steel, with a durable, corrosion-resistant chromium layer, withstands extreme temperatures and environmental conditions. Its strength, low maintenance, and modern look make it an eco-friendly choice for cladding and roofing.
Steel offers durable, eco-friendly protection against wind, rain, and fire, with a high melting point for enhanced safety. Its low maintenance, recyclability, and customization options in colors and textures make it a lasting, aesthetic choice with a lifecycle of up to 60 years.
STEEL
ZINC
Zinc is a durable, corrosion-resistant material ideal for cladding and roofing. Its protective patina, lightweight malleability, and recyclable nature offer lasting performance and a sophisticated, adaptable look for modern architecture.
Zincalume combines zinc and aluminum for superior durability and corrosion resistance, making it lightweight, versatile, and easy to install. Its attractive, recyclable finish suits various architectural styles, offering both functionality and elegance.
