At Finn Industrial Roofing we specialise in the design and manufacture of premium aluminium cladding systems, including fascia’s, soffits, copings and rainwater management products. Built with care and precision in the UK, our entire service line is engineered for outstanding performance, clean aesthetics and long-term reliability.
All of our aluminium solutions are produced using advanced techniques and high-grade materials to meet the exacting standards of modern construction. From new developments to refurbishment projects, our cladding and finishing systems are tailored to enhance both function and form. With a variety of styles and finishes available, we help bring architectural vision to life (without compromising durability).
Aluminium cladding typically ranges from 0.7mm to 3mm in thickness, depending on application.
0.7–1.2mm: Ideal for fascias, soffits, and decorative panels.
1.5–2mm: Common for wall cladding and light-duty rainwater systems.
2.5–3mm+: Used for load-bearing features, high-traffic areas, or security upgrades.
Choosing the right gauge helps balance durability, weight, and cost.
"For the past three years Finn roofing has been our only sub contractor that we use. They have under taken many projects for us including the complete remodelling of our largest site. They are professional and reliable and would recommend many times over.
Aluminium cladding refers to the external layering of a building using aluminium panels. These panels, known for their lightweight and robust qualities, are applied to the outer framework of a structure to act as a protective skin. They help shield the underlying materials from weather-related wear and tear—including rain, wind, and fluctuating temperatures—while also elevating the visual appeal of the building.
Commonly used in both domestic and commercial developments, aluminium cladding is valued for its clean lines, modern aesthetic, and adaptability. With a wide selection of colours, profiles, and finishes available, it offers architects and contractors the flexibility to achieve both performance and style.
Aluminium cladding is typically used on the exterior of buildings to create a weather-resistant envelope. It helps preserve the structure by defending against environmental stress, including water ingress, UV rays, and extreme weather conditions. It also contributes to thermal insulation and noise control.
In refurbishment projects, aluminium cladding is often employed to give older properties a refreshed and contemporary look. It can mask surface imperfections and provide a uniform, durable finish. This makes it an ideal solution for updating facades on commercial buildings, warehouses, schools, and industrial units.
While aluminium itself is non-combustible, the full cladding system’s fire performance depends on:
Core materials (in ACPs)
Coatings and fixings
Installation method
Ask your supplier whether the system meets BS EN 13501-1 or A2-s1,d0 ratings—essential for many commercial or public sector projects.
Our commitment to quality extends beyond craftsmanship. Every product comes with a robust 20-year guarantee, underscoring our belief in its resilience and performance. With Finn Industrial Roofing, you’re investing in protection, style, and total peace of mind.

We work around your schedule to survey, repair or install your roof
✅ Exceptional Durability. Aluminium resists corrosion and does not warp or crack under pressure, making it a dependable material that retains its strength over decades.
✅ Lightweight Efficiency. As a naturally light material, aluminium reduces structural load while simplifying handling and installation. This can cut down on labour time and transportation costs.
✅ Minimal Maintenance. A simple wipe-down is often enough to keep aluminium cladding looking like new. Unlike timber or steel, it doesn’t require repainting or extensive upkeep.
✅ Thermal Performance. When combined with insulation, aluminium cladding enhances the building’s thermal envelope. This helps maintain indoor temperatures, reducing energy consumption year-round.
✅ Design Versatility. Available in a range of textures, tones, and finishes, from brushed metal to powder-coated colour, aluminium cladding can complement a wide variety of architectural styles.
✅ Eco-Friendly Choice. Aluminium is 100% recyclable and retains its qualities through multiple cycles. Using it helps reduce construction waste and supports sustainable building practices.
Client: Southern C******l Logistics
Sector: Industrial/Commercial
Location: Weymouth, Dorset
Scope: Full aluminium fascia, soffit and rainwater goods installation
Southern C****** Logistics approached Finn Industrial Roofing to modernise the exterior envelope of their 1980s-built warehouse in Weymouth. The ageing steel fascias and outdated rainwater systems were beginning to show signs of corrosion and inefficiency—posing both aesthetic and structural concerns.
After an initial site assessment and consultation, our team designed a tailored aluminium cladding package that would improve weather protection, reduce long-term maintenance costs, and bring a clean, professional appearance to the facility.
We installed high-grade powder-coated aluminium fascias and soffits, colour-matched to the client’s branding (RAL 7016 Anthracite Grey). To complement the system, we also supplied and fitted robust box-section aluminium downpipes and gutters – engineered for heavy flow capacity and corrosion resistance (ideal for the sometime below freezing climate).
All components were fabricated in-house to the client’s exact dimensions, ensuring rapid turnaround and precision on-site fitting. The installation was completed within five-working days, with no disruption to the warehouse’s daily operations.
The result? a sleek, low-maintenance aluminium cladding solution that elevated the building’s curb appeal while reinforcing its long-term weatherproofing. The client was particularly impressed with the speed of execution and the sharp finish delivered by our expert team.
We specialise in custom-made solutions to suit individual design and performance requirements. Whether you’re working on a new build or a refurbishment/renovation, we collaborate with architects and engineers to deliver cladding that fits perfectly.
You can choose from a standard palette of colours or request a custom coating in virtually any RAL shade. A variety of surface finishes is available too, including matte, satin, gloss, and metallic options.
We also manufacture perforated panels or decorative patterns for projects where ventilation or visual interest is a priority. Everything is made to order, right here in the UK, to ensure exact specifications are met.
