3 Cover width Options
KingZip gives you full flexibility to create functional and technically perfect convex, concave and angular architectural roof shapes.
KingZip Standing Seam
Built-up
KingZip is a built up standing seam system that enables you to create angular, convex, concave and tapered architectural forms in 2D geometric capability.
Key Features
Material: Aluminium or steel
Standard cover widths: 300 or 400 mm as standard
Lengths from 1.5 - 150 m (site rolled) 1.5 - 15 m (factory rolled)
Can be tapered
Suitable for curved applications - can be curved to 5m for convex and 10m for concave (for 0.9mm thick aluminium)
How It Works
Design Flexibility
Fully customizable built-up system enabling you to fulfill design intent with total flexibility.
High Performance Acoustic Systems
High performance acoustic buildups that can achieve Rw values up to 64dB and NRC values up to 0.8.
Enhanced Insulated Thermal Systems
High performance thermal buildups with U-Values up to 0.10 W/m2K.
Hybrid Systems
Get the best of both worlds by combining Kingspan Roofliner panels with KingZip standing seam for the ultimate roofing solution.
Project Spotlight
Western Sydney International Airport
Western Sydney International Airport showcases KingZip Standing Seam at an extraordinary scale. KingZip roofing sheets up to 78 metres long were roll-formed on site, reducing joints and supporting greater installation efficiency across the expansive terminal roof. The system also contributes to the project’s demanding thermal and acoustic performance requirements, demonstrating KingZip’s capability for complex, large-scale infrastructure.
Technical information
Designed for all roofing applications at an installed pitch of 1.5° or greater, and usable as a vertically laid wall cladding. Pitches must be achieved after loadings and deflection are accounted for.

- Welded roof penetrations
- 1.5° minimum pitch
- Laid-in rooflights, ridge to eaves
- 1.5° minimum pitch
- Rooflights lapped onto KingZip
- Greater than 4.0°

- Sheet width
- 300 or 400 mm, two mini ribs or flat pan depending on material type and thickness
- 300 mm cover
- 0.75 steel 9.58 kg/m² (2.87 kg/lm) · 0.90 alu 3.90 kg/m² (1.17 kg/lm) · 1.20 alu 5.20 kg/m² (1.56 kg/lm)
- 400 mm cover
- 0.75 steel 8.69 kg/m² (3.48 kg/lm) · 0.90 alu 3.54 kg/m² (1.42 kg/lm) · 1.20 alu 4.72 kg/m² (1.89 kg/lm)
Top sheets are designed to be rolled on site for maximum efficiency. Additional charges apply for factory rolled sheets.
- On-site rolled
- 1.5 – 150 m
- Factory rolled
- 1.5 – 15 m
The profile can be concave, convex or wave shaped, incorporating both curves in one sheet. Sheets self-curve to a degree, or are mechanically smooth or crimp curved.
- Site sprung, convex
- 0.90 alu 40 / 45 m · 1.20 alu 55 / 60 m · 0.75 steel 55 / 60 m
- Smooth rolled, convex
- 0.90 alu 5 m · 1.20 alu 5 m · 0.75 steel 12 m
- Factory crimp, convex
- 0.75 m in every gauge
- Site sprung, concave
- 0.90 alu 50 m · 1.20 alu 60 m · 0.75 steel 60 m
- Smooth rolled, concave
- 0.90 alu 10 m · 1.20 alu 8 m · 0.75 steel 20 m
Tapered sheets carry the same curve radii as straight KingZip and integrate fully with it, for geometries curved on plan or domed.
- Minimum length
- 3.5 m
- Maximum sheet length
- 15 m, limited by transport vehicle dimensions
- Minimum taper width
- 230 mm
- Maximum taper width
- 400 mm
- Finish note
- Aluminium tapered sheets are powder-coated after fabrication, so a shade variation against the pre-coated coil may occur
- Cover width
- ± 2 mm
- Edge squareness
- 1% of sheet cover width
- Length up to 10 m
- +10 mm / −5 mm
- Length over 10 m
- +10 mm, plus 1 mm per metre over 10 m / −5 mm
