Nigel Fields, Midlands Area Technician for SIG Design and Technology, explained: “The metals act as mechanical restraints, trapping the membrane around the roof perimeters to secure it against any possible delamination from the timber substrate.” IKO’s Laminated PVC Coated Metal, a galvanised steel, was used to form bespoke trim detailing on the main high-level roof, the drip edges matching the membrane’s slate grey colouring. The same high-quality PVC compound is used on both the upper and lower side of the membrane, ensuring optimal weld strength and quality. Phase one of the development features five five-bed houses and one four-bed home, all with ‘cold’ system distinctive single pitch roofs whose simulated zinc metal appearance complements the contemporary design.Īrmourplan PSG, which is adhered using Spectrabond low foaming PU adhesive, is made by IKO Polymeric in Derbyshire, the only manufacturer of PVC single ply membranes in Great Britain. The monopitch roofs are waterproofed with Armourplan PSG and Standing Seams The properties’ roofs feature UV stable Armourplan PSG with hot air-welded standing seam profiles adding to the lustrous metal-type appearance. SIG Design and Technology specified Armourplan PSG fleece backed membrane as the single ply waterproofing system for a development of 25 luxury homes being built on the former garden site of St John’s School of Mission in Bramcote village, Nottingham.īaxter Green, being developed by Willmark Homes, comprises a mix of three, four and five-bed family properties positioned around a ‘village green’ and has been sensitively designed to enhance the setting of a Grade-II listed building and conservation area that are also within the nine-acre site. St John’s School of Mission becomes Baxter Green Here’s a luxury housing project which we’re working on where the standing seam is provided by a high quality PVC membrane made in the UK. Not all standing seam roofing is metal however. Standing Seam roofing is becoming increasingly popular on new housing developments it is attractive and compliments contemporary designs.
