Keder and Temporary Roof Sheeting

ITP’s high-performance sheeting provides superior weather protection, durability, and safety, ensuring that temporary roofing structures remain effective in various environments.

1. Exceptional Weather Protection
Robust resistance to wind, rain, and snow, maintaining a dry and secure working environment, reducing the risk of weather-related delays in construction and industrial projects.

2. Enhanced Durability and Longevity
Premium materials are reinforced and resistant to wear and tear. This durability minimises the need for frequent replacements, ensuring cost efficiency and long-term performance.

3. Improved Safety Standards
Designed to withstand high wind loads and environmental stresses, reducing the risk of structural failure.

4. Superior Fit and Performance
Manufactured to precise specifications, integrating seamlessly with keder and temporary roofing systems. The tight and secure fit reduces the risk of wind uplift and ensures optimal containment for dust, debris, and noise control.

5. Cost Efficiency
Investing in high-quality sheeting reduces maintenance costs and extends the lifespan of temporary roofing systems. Its durability minimises damage-related expenses, making it a cost-effective choice for long-term use.

In the construction industry, BS 7955 is a widely accepted standard covering containment nets and sheets. This standard outlines requirements for tensile strength, as well as the strength of eyelets and attachment fasteners. Compliance with BS 7955 is considered a reliable benchmark for these specific performance aspects.

Scaffold sheeting requires third-party certification confirming certain flame retardancy standards to be compliance for use on contracts valued over £2.5m or part of a larger contract valued over £20m. Failure to use certified sheeting could result in the ceasing or withdrawal of insurance in relation to the Joint Code of Practice on the Protection from Fire of Construction Sites and Buildings Undergoing Renovation (JCC). Many insurance policies include this Code of Practice, making it vital to ensure third party certification when required by the criteria set by JCC .

Two UK bodies are authorised to certify flame retardancy: Warringtonfire and the Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB). Warringtonfire developed its Certifire scheme with TS 62 and TS 63 standards, defining reaction-to-fire performance requirements for materials used in scaffold cladding and temporary protective coverings. The LPCN established LPS 1207 and LPS 1215 standards, setting out fire performance requirements for protective covering materials and scaffold cladding materials, respectively.

Products that have obtained these certifications undergo rigorous testing to verify their fire-retardant capabilities. Using such certified materials significantly enhances safety on construction sites by reducing the risk of fire spread associated with non-compliant or inadequately tested sheeting.
