Insulated Steel Buildings
> Overview
Insulated Steel Buildings are permanent portal‑frame structures with insulated cladding systems, designed for energy efficiency and controlled environments. These are suited for warehousing, workshops, food/agri storage, and manufacturing spaces where temperature regulation and condensation control are critical.
Frames are fabricated in galvanised structural steel and supplied CE certified to EN 1090. Buildings are designed to Eurocodes for wind and snow actions, with site‑specific calculation packs provided for building control. Insulated wall and roof panels improve thermal performance, reduce condensation, and meet energy compliance standards.
> Key Benefits (All Models)
- Thermal Efficiency – insulated sandwich panels reduce heat loss and condensation.
- Permanent commercial build – hot‑dip galvanised steel frame, CE certified to EN 1090.
- Regulatory Compliance – Eurocode design loads, building control packs, fire‑rated cladding options.
- Flexible layouts – modular bays, adaptable doors, roof‑lights, and mezzanines.
- Longevity – service life of 40+ years with minimal maintenance.
> Options & Add‑Ons
- Roller shutters, sectional doors, and personnel doors.
- Insulated roof‑lights, daylight wall panels.
- Gutters, downpipes, and drainage detailing.
- Fire‑rated insulated cladding (up to 2 hours).
- Ventilation and HVAC interfaces for temperature‑controlled use.
