A new range of roof and wall systems which simplify the specification process by providing an innovative install solution, has been developed by Euroclad.

Elite Systems are designed with the environment and performance top of the agenda.

Consisting of steel outer and liner sheets with mineral fibre insulation, Elite Systems are non-combustible and do not release any lethal smoke when exposed to flames or high temperatures.

In the event of a fire, these systems can maintain their integrity and help protect the lives of building occupants and firefighters.

In addition to its fire performance, Elite Systems offer a simple route for recycling at the end of their useful life. Any unavoidable carbon emissions can be offset as part of the Confidex Sustain programme from Corus, the world's first cradle to cradle CarbonNeutral metal building envelope. Through Corus Confidex Sustain, for every 1kg of CO2 generated by the production and installation of pre-finished steel, cladding, fixings and insulation, Corus will offset 1kg in climate friendly projects.


John Dunnington, Marketing Executive at Euroclad comments: "Sustainable construction is a major consideration for all building owners and developers. Elite Systems ensure the recycling process is straightforward and environmentally sound. The specification process can be fraught with pitfalls and Elite Systems offer many benefits to ensure all the essential boxes are ticked."

Euroclad’s Elite Systems are lightweight and have the ability to span long distances and incorporate unusual roof shapes such as curves and tapers. Ease of installation is a major benefit for built-up metal systems which quickly form a watertight layer. For further information please visit: www.euroclad.com.
