Independent specification tool for metal roofs and facades free to users combined
Story
www.metalinfo.co.uk has been launched to provide the first independent source of reference for specifiers of zinc, stainless steel, copper and aluminium roofing and faÇade systems. The site actively promotes the use of hard metals and has been designed to simplify the design and installation process by making detail drawings and build-up information for inclusion in contract documentation available in an industry-recognised format. The service can be used either on site via a mobile device or in the office.
Metal roofing and faÇade systems attract an understandably high level of interest among specifiers given the critical contribution they make to the aesthetics and functionality of any building envelope. With so many subtle variations in colour, texture, finish and application technique, the availability of a single source of information which is not linked to any manufacturer is already proving to be an invaluable specification tool.
Users need no longer search for information and register with individual manufacturers' websites, so product comparison is easier and downloading of essential information far quicker. Only an e-mail address is required rather than lengthy registration, after which drawings can be sourced using a simple search tool and previewed prior to downloading.
The site includes a comprehensive listing of manufacturers, distributors and installers with contact details and web links. To view an introductory video on the site go to www.metalinfo.co.uk/video.html
