The category includes corrugated and trapezoidal profiled sheets, standing seam panels and smooth coil sheets in steel or aluminium with various surface coatings suitable for different roof slopes and applications.

What materials are sheets made from in this category?
Sheets are available in galvanized steel (ZN), steel with polymer coatings (RR colour series) and aluminium coil options; material selection depends on desired corrosion resistance and finish.
How does a trapezoidal profile differ from a corrugated sheet?
Trapezoidal profiles offer greater stiffness for larger spans and faster installation, while corrugated sheets provide a traditional appearance and are often used on smaller roofs; both come in various thicknesses and coatings.
How to choose coating and colour for metal roofing?
Select coating based on corrosion resistance and climate: galvanized (ZN) for basic protection, polymer coatings (RR colour series) for durability and appearance; choose a colour that complements the façade and surroundings.
