Architectural Metalformers have launched a new addition to their Smart Tray range of products with Smart Tray Lock Seam which fixes directly onto purlins or extruded alumunium rail with no requirement for a plywood substrate.
This is an exciting new option for high wind zone areas, as it has been tested to withstand in excess of up to 3 times the accepted test pressure of a trapezoidal tray roof and eliminated wind uplift to the highest levels. Lock Seam is also available as a cladding option and has the ability to be installed on residential buildings such as The Sands Village in Browns Bay.
Property owner and architect Robyn Bilkey decided to invest in the new Smart Tray Lock Seam roofing for her new property in Parnell.
“We were very pleased to find a roofing product comparable to the wide-tray types of roofing on the market but without the added cost of plywood sarking. The new roof looks good and performs very well,” comments Robyn on this new system. An innovative approach was taken to the project as described by Greg Hurt, Senior Contracts Manager, “A great modern looking roof that is installed directly on purlins at 450mm centres. It is installed by our qualified roofers to the same specifications and focus on quality as our full Standing Seam roof but saving the cost of ply and fastenings.”
Visually, our tray roofs and cladding are stylish with a strong visual appeal and the materials we choose are sustainable, have a low carbon footprint, recyclable and are sensitive to the environment.
Our Lock Seam profile is a complementary new addition to our Smart Tray range of products which includes Standing Seam, Batten Cap and Snap-Lock roofing, and it is installed with the same care and attention to detail that we have built our reputation on.
Available in Aluminium and Steel.
