Corus and the cladding system manufacturers

The companies featured all have manufacturing operations in the UK or Republic of Ireland and have longstanding relationships with Corus, developed over many years. They are recognised market leaders in the UK and Irish roof and wall cladding sector, very experienced in profiling Colorcoat® products. Together with Corus they provide quality solutions for building envelopes which can ensure the designer a reputable supply chain and confidence in a pre-engineered solution all providing peace of mind.

To ensure that the most appropriate system is specified for a given building project, the following areas need to be considered:

• Building performance – such as fire, thermal, acoustics.
• Sustainability and life-cycle analysis.
• In-service cost analysis including guarantees, insurance and maintenance.
• Appearance and colour.
• Ease of installation.
• Detailing – the interface with other elements.

Each of these is covered in the 'Colorcoat Building' manual or on Colorcoat-Online.
