Standing seam roof
Traditional standing seam roof systems
Made of foldable aluminium
Kalzip foldable aluminium is the ideal material for use in traditional plumbing techniques. Almost any shape for roofs and façades can be achieved. Folding, edging and pulling – the surfaces are processed quickly and precisely using conventional tools.
The advantages of standing seam roofs:
- Design freedom thanks to virtually unlimited formability
- Convincing value for money
- Planning, construction time and cost certainty thanks to easy processing of the material, even at low temperatures without heating
- Highly corrosion-resistant and stable in value for long-term building protection
- Convenient processing using traditional, well-known plumbing techniques

Practical advantages of standing seam roofs
- A 100 kg roll of FalZinc with a construction width of 600 mm has approximately 88 linear metres, compared to 33 linear metres for zinc.
- In most constructions, a structured separating layer on solid wood formwork is not necessary.
- Variety through surface variants FalZinc, Dark FalZinc, TitanSilver, Bronze B 40, UltraDark and FalzColor
- Design freedom thanks to virtually unlimited formability
APPLICATIONS
- Vielseitige Einsatzbereiche: Kalzip falzbares Aluminium kann sowohl als Fassadenverkleidung als auch für Dachbedeckung eingesetzt werden.
- Residential buildings: Traditional standing seam systems are also suitable for roofing residential buildings.
- Commercial and industrial buildings: Traditional standing seam systems can be used for large and small commercial and industrial buildings, such as office buildings, shopping centres, warehouses and factories.
- Public buildings: Standing seam roofs are a popular choice for public buildings such as schools, universities, hospitals, government buildings and other institutions.
- Sports facilities: Kalzip traditional standing seam systems are a good choice for sports facilities such as stadiums, swimming pools and sports halls.
