The Environment

We have been scrutinising the impact of what we do and how we operate since inception, these days we take this process further and include all our actions and how they might effect the environment and their cost. All Metal Roofing have certification for the metals used for roofing and cladding to include within your green credentials and specifications.

The energy saving rating is now firmly part of the initial design process and we can work with you to achieve these longer-term goals. All Metal Roofing can help from the building techniques and materials used in our contracted roofign and cladding projects to take a responsible and considered approach to all environmental concerns.

The Government's ‘Sustainable Buildings Task Group’ reported that no one body or organisation was providing clear direction for the sector as a whole. The UK Green Building Council was established to fulfil this role. The UK-GBC have worked and continue to do so on a Code for Sustainable Homes.

The Energy Saving Trust will include materials used within their criteria and metal roofing and cladding will be highly rated in their external insulation criteria, read more here.
