Colour coated sheets (pre-painted steel such as PPGI/PPGL) are a popular roofing choice because they’re light, fast to install, and low-maintenance. However, there is no "one size fits all" when it comes to industrial and residential roofs. Here is a useful guide to help you choose the best product for each application, including what to prioritize, which trade-offs are important, and a quick checklist to use when making a purchase. Understand the different performance demands Wide spans, long unsupported lengths, heavy equipment on roofs, chemical or oily factory atmospheres, and occasionally coastal or corrosive environments are just a few of the harsher exposures and heavier loads that industrial roofing typically faces. Additionally, functional profiles for drainage and nesting with insulation systems are preferred on industrial roofs. Appearance, color longevity, thermal comfort (reflectivity), and integration with building aesthetics are the top priorities for ... Continue reading →

Steel angles are one of the most versatile structural components used across various industries, including construction, manufacturing, and engineering. They provide excellent strength, stability, and support in structural frameworks and fabrication projects. Understanding the common sizes and dimensions of steel angles is crucial for selecting the right product for specific applications. Steel Angle Basics Steel angles are typically manufactured with two legs that form a 90-degree angle. They are available in equal and unequal leg dimensions, offering flexibility based on load-bearing and design requirements. The dimensions of steel angles are expressed in terms of leg length and thickness. Common Sizes of Steel Angles Steel angles come in a wide range of sizes to accommodate different applications. The most commonly available sizes include: Equal Angles: 20 mm x 20 mm 25 mm x 25 mm 40 mm x 40 mm 50 mm x 50 mm 65 mm x 65 mm 75 mm x 75 mm 100 mm x 100 mm Unequal Angles: 30 mm x 20 mm ...
