Fully supported metal standing seam wall cladding system.
Metal standing seam wall cladding system suitable for a wide range of new build and refurbishment applications including:
EasySeam Wall Cladding System uses a metal standing seam profile to offer a robust and durable solution that’s quick and easy to install.
Offered as a complete kit of parts including breather membrane, corner and window flashings, fixings and sealant, ensuring you get the very best aesthetics and quality for your walling project.
Available as a standard build up, the wall profile is supported by and fixed to an 18 mm Oriented Strand Board (OSB)3 and a breathable membrane. This construction build up will achieve a Class C in the European Fire test ISO 9705-1 and is suitable for use on some low-rise buildings (less than 11 m high in England) and further than 1 m from the boundary. To achieve a Class A1 fire performance rating, EasySeam System using either Tata Steel Colorcoat Prisma or SSAB Green Pural BT supported with a galvanised steel deck, would provide the best solution for wall cladding on multi-use building of any height close to the boundary.
