Trisomet® steel insulated roof panels
Steel insulated roof panels with optimum performance for water drainage, strength and walkability.
Building Systems UK's Trisomet® are steel insulated roof panels manufactured as a single component suitable for both roof and wall cladding applications.
As a one-fix component its consistency enables speed of installation and with a wide spaced trapezoidal steel external skin provides optimum performance for water drainage, strength and walkability.
Time saving factory applied sealant – Trisomet® steel insulated roof panels are available with a factory applied side lap sealant (FASS) for improved consistency of weathering performance; and increased efficiency through faster installation speeds and reduced demand for onsite labour.

* The panel length is measured by the length of the external sheet, as shown above. Lengths over 14,000mm will be subject to additional delivery charges.
** Panels will always have one flush end and one cutback end; therefore they will be handed and should be ordered according to the direction of lay required.
*** Recommended end laps are 50mm for horizontal, 100mm for vertical and 150mm for roof applications.

The Platinum Plus system guarantee needs to be registered by the specifier prior to the tender package being distributed. To find out more click here, alternatively please contact our technical team so that we can help you to guarantee the longevity of your building click here to contact us.
EN-Construction-Product-Trisomet | Thermal and fire performance
Thermal performance
Trisomet® complies with the minimum requirements of the conservation of fuel and power sections of the Building Regulations for England and Wales (Part L2) and Scotland (Technical Handbook Section 6 Energy). The panel construction offers highly consistent insulation performance, and the site-formed junctions provide a practical and effective method of ensuring good thermal performance.

100 | 0.2 | Enhanced |
120 | 0.16 | Enhanced |
135 | 0.15 | Enhanced |
* Figures computer modelled in accordance with EN ISO 10211
Fire Safety*
Trisomet® carries Grade EXT-B and EXT-A approval by the LPCB. Also achieves fire resistance performance of up to 4 hours integrity and 30 mins insulation dependant on panel thickness. These are attained using standard fixing and sealing methods (external side-lap stitched at maximum 300mm centres).
The panel achieves a Broof (t4) performance for the external surface spread of flame and fire penetration on a roof in accordance with BS EN 13501-5. The internal surface of the panel also complies with a Class B s2 d0 rating in accordance with BS EN 13501-1.
Following rigorous structural and fire performance testing with FM Global, Trisomet® panels have achieved FM Approvals certification to the following stringent standards:
4471: Class 1 Panel roofs
4480: Class 1 Insulated wall and ceiling panels
4481: Class 1 Exterior wall systems (unlimited height)
Specifying and installing FM Approved products will provides assurance that the products have been objectively tested and confirm to the highest international standards. FM Approved roof and wall panel’s means you can be confident that your building envelope will withstand a broad range of fire and environmental risks and be safe throughout its lifecycle..
