Twin skin metal roofs are flexible, lightweight and cost-effective commercial roofing system
Requiring minimum maintenance, double skin aluminium roofs can be recycled at the end of the building’s life.
Quick and easy to install, twin skin metal roofs, combine high performance and versatility. A closed watertight construction ensures a total weather protection whilst at the same time, allowing the roof to ‘breathe’ naturally.
Metal roofs are available in a range of thicknesses, profiles, colours, coatings and finishes. For greater spans, standing seam secret fix sheets can be roll-formed on site to lengths of over 120 metres.

Double skin metal roofs are basically two layers of profiled metal sheets, with a deeper cavity for increased thermal insulation.
Twin skin metal roofs have been fitted since the 1970s. With current air tightness requirements, very close attention must be paid to perimeter detailing, to make sure a good quality vapour/air seal layer is created. It is possible to mix and match manufacturers, with steel linings and aluminium top sheets for longevity, or indeed standing seam aluminium for extra long life span/performance.
