comments: 'Rainham Steel is a commercial enterprise and key to the
successful delivery of this project was the need to ensure that
tight construction programme was achieved. Ideally suited for fast
track projects, the Corus’ Trisomet® 333 insulated panel
system manufactured under factory controlled conditions improves
the speed of construction, and allowed us to complete the building
within the required timescales. Specifying Trisomet® 333 System
enabled us to install the building envelope substantially faster
than alternative solutions available in the market – bringing
significant overall cost and time savings to the project."
The Trisomet® 333 System is a high performance through fix
roof and wall panel comprising a Corus Colorcoat® pre-finished
steel external skin, zero ODP PIR insulation core and a polyester
coated steel internal liner. The product offers both excellent
thermal and air tightness performance, with the additional
assurance of long term durability afforded by Corus’
Colorcoat® LG pre-finished steel external skin.
Mark Clemson, Commercial Director – Building Envelope,
Corus Panels and Profiles: 'Performing to the highest standards of
thermal performance and air-tightness, specifying Trisomet® 333
System can enable a finished building to achieve an air tightness
performance as low as 3m³/hr/m² as well as a BREEAM
excellent rating. Furthermore, with its environmentally friendly
zero ODP insulation core, the Trisomet® 333 System can be fully
recycled once the building reaches the end of its useful lifespan
– properties which contribute to making this one of the most
sustainable building envelope systems currently available on the
market."

Structural market sectors – industrial, commercial,
