About
Unicote Select & Unicote Coastal
Top 3 Benefits:
- Health and Eco-toxicity
- Product Stewardship
- ISO 14001 Environmental Management System
UniCote™ Select and UniCote™ Coastal are factory pre-painted metallic coated steel products used across a range of building applications, including roofing, wall cladding, and rainwater goods. Both products are manufactured using a steel substrate with a corrosion-resistant metallic coating and a factory-applied paint system, providing a consistent surface finish and long-term durability.
UniCote™ Select is intended for use in standard atmospheric environments such as inland and suburban locations, where general durability and appearance are required.
UniCote™ Coastal is designed for environments subject to higher levels of corrosion, including coastal areas, incorporating an enhanced metallic alloy coating to improve resistance to environmental exposure.
Once installed, both products function as solid, inert building materials. Under normal conditions of use, no emissions or hazardous substance release are expected, and no additional chemical treatments are required during the service life. UniCote™ Select and UniCote™ Coastal are commonly specified where durability, low maintenance, and suitability for long-term external use are key considerations.
