Another long span metal roofing ideal for areas regularly experiencing rain is our Hi Rib. It has a deep corrugation design that can carry a large volume of rainwater.

Hi Rib is recommended as roofing for gymnasiums, warehouses, and almost all flat roof structures. It is also suitable for commercial and industrial buildings.
For industrial plants with a long span and very steep slope, we recommend our Mega Hi-Rib, which has a deep corrugation design capable of carrying a large volume of rainwater. Its high rib height and non-flat surface provide extra strength and maximum rain drain-off capacity.
