Corus Panels and Profiles obtain LPCB approval for new joint design on the Corus Trisomet® 333 System

20 Apr 2009

During this time Corus Panels and Profiles has strived to improve the system’s performance and in 2008 introduced the Trisomet® 333 System with its wider spaced trapezoidal steel external skin, providing optimum performance for water drainage, strength and walkability.

In January 2009 there was the introduction of an improved foam formulation that does not only have a zero ozone depletion potential (ODP), but has also a very low global warming potential (GWP) of less than 5.

The most recent development is a new joint design, which comprises of a straightforward side lapping detail allowing fast and consistent installation, resulting in the contractor spending less time on site.

The Trisomet 333 System with the new joint design will be available from the 1st July 2009

This design has been tested for fire performance by the Loss Prevention Certification Board to LPS 1181 part 1 and has been approved by the LPCB.
