Prepainted Galvalume® Sheet.

The superior residential roofing material for custom home builders who demand uncompromising quality in durability, structural integrity and aesthetics.

Builders of custom homes know that a good looking roof can make a great looking house look even better. And when the house looks good so does the builder. For good looks, it's hard to beat the unique appearance of a roof fabricated from prepainted Galvalume sheet. Your clients will love it.

Of course aesthetics are important, but it takes more than good looks to make a great roof. It also takes performance and by any performance measure prepainted Galvalume sheet is truly outstanding.

An engineering breakthrough

Galvalume sheet is a cold-rolled sheet steel to which a coating of aluminum-zinc alloy has been applied. The precise combination of aluminum, zinc and silicon for this remarkable coating was discovered nearly 25 years ago by engineers at Bethlehem's research laboratories. This technological breakthrough resulted in a highly corrosion-resistant sheet steel that delivers the optimum combination of characteristics of aluminum and zinc: the barrier protection and long-term durability of aluminum and the sacrificial or galvanic protection of sheared edges that is characteristic of zinc.

Durability and aesthetics

In addition to the durability gained with this remarkable coating, color and beauty are also enhanced. Prepainted Galvalume sheet is available in a wide range of colors and finishes. Because of the high degree of formability of sheet steel, prepainted Galvalume sheet has been shaped to resemble shingles and tiles. The most popular configuration is the standing seam panel which gives the crisp, clean architectural look that is so characteristic of a metal roof. Home owners love its look.

Structural integrity

Prepainted Galvalume sheet won't spall, curl or split like asphalt or wood shakes. A roof fabricated from prepainted Galvalume sheet has an extraordinary resistance to wind. In fact, with a UL90* rating (the industry's highest), a prepainted Galvalume sheet roof system can withstand hurricane force turbulence.

Prepainted Galvalume sheet is also fire-resistant. Many of the roofing systems that use this material carry a Class 1 Factory Mutual fire rating.

Minimum maintenance

Prepainted Galvalume sheet sheds snow, ice and airborne debris better than competitive systems, resulting in a virtually maintenance-free roof.

Structural integrity, durability, resistance to damage from wind, rain, snow, salt spray and even fire, combined with a clean, crisp look in virtually any color you can imagine. That's prepainted Galvalume sheet for residential roofing. Is there any wonder that builders of fine custom homes throughout America are putting this superior roofing material to good use?

Flexibility in design, color, fabrication and installation.

Flexibility is a key advantage when using prepainted Galvalume sheet roofing systems. For one thing you can specify the roof you need and have the components fabricated off-site and delivered to the job right when you need them. Prepainted Galvalume sheet is available in a variety of styles and profiles. Panels are light weight and easy to handle so your roof goes on quickly.

Factory control means color consistency

Because all components are made from coils that are painted on huge coil-coating lines under factory-controlled conditions, uniform color integrity is assured. This means that color will be consistent from panel to panel, and on trim and sub-elements too.
