Various Colors & Attractive Appearance
At Wanzhi Steel, coated corrugated steel sheets are available in a wide range of colors to choose from. You can choose according to the RAL Color. Also, they offer custom patterns to meet your needs. As we know, color can help highlight or disguise certain features of your house. For example, lighter colors make your roof look taller, while darker colors do the opposite and make a tall roof look less steep.

Light Weight & High Strength
The weight of a colored corrugated panel is less than 10 kg/m2. Thus, it is easy to transport and install. But it has excellent strength so that it can also be used as a load-bearing panel.

Great Corrosion & Weather Resistance
The sheet commonly uses the galvanised steel sheet or galvalume steel as substrate. The zinc or Al-Zn coating provides a protective layer to protect the base metal from corrosion. Besides, the sheet itself has high strength and the corrugated design can enhance its weight-bearing capacity. So corrugated steel sheets are also widely used in roofing or decking applications. Moreover, the color steel sheet also has excellent fireproof performance so that it is not easy to burn in fire. Generally, its service life is more than 20 years. If installed and maintained properly, it can last more than 30 years.

Cons of Color Corrugated Steel Sheet

Exposed fastener system: Installing the sheets will use an exposed fastener system. That is to say, the hardware used to secure the sheets – whether used in an interior or exterior application – is fastened on the outside of the panels. Therefore, you have to make sure that fastener fittings are fixed and not rusted, and that the washers are intact.
Poor sound-insulation performance: color coated steel sheet is always very thin so its sound and heat insulation effect are poor. If you want to improve the heat and sound insulation effect, you can choose corrugated sandwich panels.
