Why Terne Metal Roofing is All the Rage
Terne metal roofs provide you with all the strengths and benefits of a metal roof without metal’s vulnerability to corrosive natural elements.
At Spengler Industries, we utilize age-old practices that contributed to the construction of the dazzling and enduring architectural wonders of Europe. So when it comes to roofing and cladding systems, we know a good thing when we see it.
That’s why we’ve latched onto terne metal. The technique has only been around since the Colonial Era, but it has many of the qualities we prize: long service life, incredible structural strength, and unmatched protection from the elements.
Advantages You Get with a Terne Metal Roof
Terne metal is produced by coating various metals, like stainless steel or copper, in a special layer of tin which significantly increases the metal’s resistance to corrosion. Other benefits of terne metal include:
- Durability. A terne roof can often last more than 100 years with very little upkeep.
- Beauty. Terne roofs not only boast added durability but are also renowned for their aesthetic appeal. Terne-coated stainless steel roofing reacts with oxygen to weather into a soft gray veneer.
- Corrosion resistance. The principle advantage of terne metal is its resilience to harsh industrial and marine environments, particularly those of the coastal states.
