As your specialist for aluminum trapezoidal sheeting, we offer you "made in Germany” quality. Depending on the application and environment, we have in our assortment a variety of models, designs and finishes suitable for all requirements.
Higher material costs compared to other materials such as steel, are justified by the durability of aluminum trapezoidal sheeting. Aluminum trapezoidal sheeting is also much easier and faster to assemble. This not only saves you time (fast construction progress), but also assembly costs.

Aluminum trapezoidal sheeting is among the light metals, but at the same time it offers high stability. Due to its material properties, it is weather-resistant even in when the surface is damaged. Compared to corrugated profiles, trapezoidal sheeting also has a higher load-bearing capacity. However, this is always dependent on the profile thickness and the sheet thickness.
Discover the versatile properties and advantages of our aluminum trapezoidal sheeting for yourself.
Aluminum trapezoidal sheeting can be used in a wide range of applications thanks to its material properties. Due to the low weight (approx. 2.5 kg/square meter), the sheets are very easy to form and can be quickly and easily processed and assembled. This is an advantage not only for roofs, but also in the cladding of façades, which can be a decisive factor.
Due to excellent resistance, even sea air, agricultural ammonia, or a chemical/aggressive industrial environment cannot harm aluminum trapezoidal sheeting.
Aluminum trapezoidal sheeting is available in different thicknesses, lengths and colors. Our range features the following standard variants. On request, we can also manufacture customized aluminum trapezoidal sheeting for you – just contact us.
(Note: The first number represents the profile height and the second represents the rib width.)
The weight of the aluminum trapezoidal sheeting varies depending on the selected profile height and rib width. This is not negligible for the assembly and substructure (load capacity). Our experts are happy to advise you – just contact us.
As a rule, wooden substructures are suitable for aluminum trapezoidal sheeting. The profiled sheets are attached to the structures with saddle washers. We recommend mounting with domes due to aluminum’s (thermal) expansion behavior. Standard fittings can loosen or break over time.
To ensure that the trapezoidal sheeting is also weather-resistant, you should always lay it in an overlapping manner.
Even if aluminum trapezoidal sheeting is rust-free, a possible weak point can be contact corrosion: If the aluminum comes into contact with another metallic component, rust can occur in poorly processed profiles (long-term loss of load-bearing capacity). That’s why high quality in terms of color coating and material processing is important.

All coatings additionally promote material properties and ensure even better resistance to weather and durability.
It goes without saying that we’ll provide everything for you from a single source. We offer the following accessories and mounting materials to go with your aluminum trapezoidal sheeting:
We recommend fastening screws and saddle washers in the raised bead for profile sheeting that is installed as roofing sheets. This prevents dripping points from forming.
In addition to fixings, you can also source from us other accessories such as sealant tapes, profiled foam fillers and anti-condensation membranes. Just contact us.
The price of trapezoidal sheeting varies greatly, depending on the thickness and material.

The width of aluminum trapezoidal sheeting depends on the selected profile height and rib width. With our standard 20/125, 30/153, 35/207 and 50/250 models, lengths up to 15 m are possible.
Example:
The 20/125 has an overall width of 1,000 mm = 1.000 m. In order to achieve a top surface with a width of about 10 m, for example, 10 panels of this profile must be placed together.
Calculation: 9 x 1.000 m (overall width) + 1 x 1.040 m (panel width) = 10.04 m
The determining factor is weight. Aluminum is significantly lighter than steel and therefore easier and faster to assemble. Due to the easy malleability of the aluminum material, it is easy and pleasant to lay. This not only saves on assembly costs, but also on labor time, and simultaneously reduces the overall construction time. In addition, there are other advantages for the choice of aluminum trapezoidal sheeting over steel and other metals:
There’s an easy rule of thumb for this question: The thicker the sheet, the more stable it is. Depending on the area of application, the profile thickness should be taken into account. For example, if you’re planning structures such as solar modules or if you need to be able to walk on the roof surface, a thickness of at least 1 mm should be selected.
