As part of the well known office suppliers on-going long term maintenance programme, Staples retail outlets around the UK have been having their metal roofs refurbished with Seamsil - the UKʼs leading Cut Edge Corrosion treatment.
With minimal disruption, Staples busy Norwich store, has become the company's seventeenth property to date, to benefit from the patented, silicone external repair treatment that is guaranteed to extend a roofʼs life for many years to come.
Itʼs over 20 years since Delvemade invented its patented silicone external repair system, for cut edge corrosion on profiled plastisol/PVDF coated steel roof sheeting. The system was developed from the outset with help from Itac, its parent company. With the co-operation of BSC (now Tata Steel), Delvemade devised an effective and long-term solution to a problem, which was affecting the metal roofs of many of its premises.
The problem was cut edge corrosion. It can be caused by a combination of poor installation techniques and on-site cutting plus attack from acid rain and pollutants, which are then retained as moisture in critical roof overlaps and gutter overhangs. This results in corrosion of the profiled steel roof sheets. If not treated quickly and effectively, the damage could lead to the need for partial or complete roof replacement.
Today, Delvemade Protective Coatings Programme, is widely recognised as the most effective sustainable solution to the problems. It helps to extend the life of roofs treated and retain property values.
Approved contractor Elite Roofing, is carrying out the application of Seamsil on Staples properties, throughout the UK, with Delvemade distributor Giromax undertaking product control whilst overseeing all installations.
