Celebrate The Detail
Replica Copper and Lead
MCM Single Skin
The MCM Single Skin system is a roofing and cladding system which combines the benefits of a modern product of Membrane Coated Steel (alkorPlan) to give the prestigious appearance of traditional weathered lead and copper appearance.
Our system is more economical in material and labour costs than traditional lead and copper and far lighter in terms of overall weight.
The system also has great flexibility, able to be fitted to and incorporating a wide variety of deck, with or without insulation and from pitches as low as 4 degrees to vertical. It can be used for duo and mono pitch and barrel vault construction.
This system, like all MCM products, is available off the shelf, or as made to measure packages for specific projects. Where detailed information is available, we have a full design team inhouse able to carry our specific project solutions.
The Membrane Coated Steel outer skin of our system is ideal for simple, cost effective detailing, as such we offer a full range of finishing trims, integral eaves, soffits, gutters, vents, fascias and kerbing for rooflight details. All detail work is easily sealed utilising standard hot air welding where necessary.
Full range of developed details are available from low profile hip and ridge to verge, abutment, valley gutter, rooflight framing for various lights to a variety of drip details. A full range of MCM gutter systems are also available with various design options.
