Trapezoidal Roofing System

The trapezoidal roofing system—also known as box profile sheeting—has long been trusted across agricultural and industrial builds. Thanks to its strength, low cost, and reliability, it remains a staple. More recently, this system has gained popularity in commercial and domestic projects, offering a sleek, modern look that’s both practical and visually appealing.

Unlike traditional roofing, trapezoidal sheets offer clean lines and enhanced durability, making them a go-to choice for a wide range of buildings. Moreover, they are available in a variety of colours, finishes, and profiles—including Core Ten, zinc, and copper-effect coatings. As a result, designers and architects can create bold, cost-effective structures without compromising performance or style.

In addition to supply, Solar Structures Ltd provides full design and installation services. Whether you require a single-skin build with anti-condensation backing or a fully insulated twin-skin system, we offer everything from flashings to rainwater goods—ensuring a professional, complete solution.

Why Choose a Trapezoidal Roofing System?

There are several reasons why this system is increasingly specified for both functional and aesthetic purposes. First, the trapezoidal profile delivers an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, providing structural integrity without adding excessive load. Second, its design encourages effective water runoff and wind resistance—two key performance factors in roofing.

Additionally, the wide range of finishes allows you to match your roof with the overall visual concept of your project. Whether you’re covering a barn, warehouse, outbuilding, or a modern commercial space, this system offers the flexibility to meet your vision. For curved applications or colour coordination, it’s especially useful.

With guarantees of up to 40 years depending on the coating, this low-maintenance solution balances durability and design, while also reducing installation time and overall cost.
