Tiger Profiles and Insulation (TPI), a one-stop shop for roofing and cladding requirements, offers a range of roofing solutions for the region’s construction industry.

Its extensive portfolio of roofing products ranges from standing seam systems and roofing tiles to Solasteel, an award-winning pre-coated water-based acrylic coating metal sheeting.

TPI is classified as the largest producer in the UAE of Z-purlins and C-channels, with an annual production capacity exceeding 2.6 million.

Established in 1994 as the cladding arm of the 40-year-old UAE-based Tiger Steel Group of Companies, TPI manufactures a range of efficient roof and wall profiles including TR 45/150, TR 45/250, TR 47/180, TR 75/300 and TR 35/200. Available in a variety of different materials including aluminium, galvanised iron (GI) and Alu-Zinc, the roll-formed profiles are provided in a range of thicknesses from 0.40 mm to 1.00 mm and in a wide selection of colours and pre-painted (polyester), PVF2 and PVC Plastisol finishes that ensure immense flexibility for architects and designers.

Elaborating on some of its extensive range of roofing products, executive director of TPI Bernard Nasr says: “The prestigious T-Seam, a standing seam roofing system, is recognised for its design flexibility, high performance, ease in maintenance, durability and resistance to corrosion and its reliability. Produced in the factory or on site, the roof sheets are easily fixed to the structure without penetrating the sheets while allowing for its safe contraction and expansion, thus eliminating the risk of water leakage and rust. T-Seam panels are supplied in aluminium, Alloy AA 3105 or AA 3004 that can be colour coated or provided in a mill finish, galvanised, stainless steel, copper and zinc. The T-Seam system is approved by DIBT – Deutsche Institute for BauTechnik (German Institute for Structural Engineering)”

Responding to the architectural building market’s demand for roofing tile effects, TPI manufactures continuous tile profile panels using rigid polyurethane with external and internal sheets of aluminium of varying thicknesses, coatings and colours as required by clients.
