Steel roof panels - Import export

At Novelis Italia innovation is not only a word, but a great reality in continuous evolution. The Novelis laboratories have devolopped a special paint that makes SUPER GRONDAL® still more re­sistant to weather and polluting agents. Thanks to this new shade, the aluminium becomes furthermore similar to the copper, with a consider­able advantage: the effect remains unchanged through the years! SUPER GRONDAL® is used to manufacture gut­ters, pluvials and accessories. Thanks to its excep­tional resistance it would be a great choice also for fa9ades (ventilated and non-ventilated) and roofing. Differently from other materials, pre-painted alu­minium is totally recyclable and maintains its me­chanical and metallurgical properties over time. SUPER GRONDAL® has an excellent resistance to the weather agents and does not release any kind of polluting material.

The primary task for the roof of any building is naturally to protect the interior. And gutters also protect the structure, playing a key role in controlling water flow off of the roof and away from the building. Of course, the roof and the gutter system also contribute to a building’s aesthetic appeal and its visual impression. In fact, often the roof of a building becomes a fixture on the skyline and a landmark, especially when the design is unique and the surface colorful. Novelis pre-painted aluminum has proven to be an effective, durable and attractive option for aluminum roofing panels and aluminum gutter material. All of the elements are easily installed and nearly permanent when maintained properly. Our products also offer practically endless possibilities for designers when considering the roof and gutters as part of their aluminum architecture.
