Swedish SSAB GreenCoat steel

SSAB is a Swedish steel group, and GreenCoat is its range of colour-coated steel for roofing, facades and rainwater systems. We roll-form our T10–T57 profiled sheeting and Classic metal tile from it. Below — how this steel differs from ordinary steel and what we have in stock.

What makes it different

In GreenCoat coatings part of the traditional petrochemistry is replaced with Swedish rapeseed oil. It is a patented SSAB solution — no other manufacturer has a direct equivalent. The plant-based binder is not only about ecology: the coating stays flexible and bends down to −15 °C without cracking at the fold, which matters for winter installation.

SSAB has been testing its coatings on outdoor exposure sites for over 40 years — in marine, industrial and northern climates. Under the new EN 10169:2022 standard the top coatings of the range hold classes RUV5 (UV resistance) and RC5+ (corrosion resistance), the highest steps of the scale.

Figures for the steel we roll

The data below is taken from the GreenCoat Pro BT datasheet — this is the coating on most items of our stock. Figures differ for other coatings of the range, please check with the manager.

The warranty comes from the steel maker itself

This is the main difference from ordinary steel: the coating warranty is given not by the seller and not by the roll-forming plant, but by SSAB. The term depends on the coating:
