Benefits of VMZINC

VMZINC systems can be used for new build and refurbishment.  VMZINC products offer durability, limited maintenance and a wide range of finishes.

Zinc is among the most sustainable metals used in construction today and has been used on the roofs of Paris for almost 200 years. The VMZINC standing seam system is also highly cost-effective, both from an initial procurement and design life perspective. Whether for new build or refurbishment, the VMZINC standing seam system has been designed to complement a wide range of building materials and styles. The finishes available offer exceptional colour stability.

This ensures that maintenance requirements will be minimal throughout the system’s design life and that the material’s installed appearance will be retained for many years. VMZINC’s versatile standing seam system can be used for warm or cold roof constructions and all trim including both internal and hanging external gutters are available in VMZINC.
