METAhybrid® Thermal Insulated Roofing & Cladding Sheets
Conventional metal roofing without insulation creates heat-trap buildings — uncomfortable to work in, expensive to cool and damaging to temperature-sensitive products.
METAhybrid® thermal insulated metal roofing sheets solve this at the roofing layer itself: every panel combines a profiled metal outer facing, a high-performance insulation intermediate layer and either an aluminium foil radiant barrier (Single Skin) or a second metal liner sheet (Double Skin) — all factory-assembled and delivered ready to install.
The result is a roofing system that blocks radiant heat, reduces sound transmission, prevents condensation and maintains comfortable indoor temperatures year-round — without additional insulation works on site.
The result is a roofing system that blocks radiant heat, reduces sound transmission, prevents condensation and maintains comfortable indoor temperatures year-round — without additional insulation works on site.
With a wide 1060mm cover width, custom lengths up to 6000mm and a choice of PPGI, GL, PPGL or aluminium facings, METAhybrid® panels adapt to virtually any industrial, agricultural or commercial roofing requirement.

How Thermal Insulated Metal
Roofing Sheets Work
Why Standard Metal Roofing Fails Without Insulation
Bare metal roofing sheets conduct heat directly into the building — raising internal temperatures by 8–15°C above ambient in Indian summer conditions
Without insulation, HVAC systems must work significantly harder — increasing energy consumption and operating costs year-round
Condensation forms on the underside of cold metal sheets in winter — leading to dripping, corrosion and product damage below
Rain impact noise on thin metal sheets creates uncomfortable working conditions in manufacturing and commercial environments
Retrofitting insulation to an existing metal roof requires additional structure, separate installation teams and significantly more site time
Retrofitting insulation to an existing metal roof requires additional structure, separate installation teams and significantly more site time
How METAhybrid® Multi-Layer Construction Solves All of This
Radiant Heat Reflection: The profiled outer metal layer reflects solar radiant heat before it enters the insulation core — reducing heat gain at source
Conductive Heat Resistance: The insulation intermediate layer (6–50mm) resists the transfer of residual heat through the roof — maintaining a stable internal temperature
Radiant Barrier at Bottom: The aluminium foil (Single Skin) reflects any remaining radiant heat back upward — creating a third line of thermal defence
Condensation Prevention: The sealed multi-layer construction prevents moisture-laden air from reaching cold surfaces — eliminating condensation drip entirely
Acoustic Dampening: The insulation layer absorbs rain impact energy and dampens airborne sound transmission — reducing interior noise levels measurably
Single-Step Installation: Pre-assembly at factory means the entire insulation system is installed in a single roofing operation — no separate insulation teams or additional visits
Energy Efficiency & Sustainability Benefits
Reduces cooling energy consumption in air-conditioned buildings by lowering the heat gain through the roof plane — the largest single source of solar heat gain in industrial buildings
Lowers the building's carbon footprint through reduced HVAC energy demand across the full operating lifetime of the roof
Maintains comfortable indoor temperatures in non-air-conditioned buildings during peak summer — reducing heat stress and improving productivity
Compatible with rooftop solar panel installation on the robust 550 MPa profiled top layer — enabling on-site renewable energy generation
Constructed from non-toxic, non-carcinogenic materials — meeting environmental and occupational health requirements for food, pharma and education sector buildings

Frequently Asked Questions
Single Skin panels use a profiled metal top layer, an insulation core (6–24mm) and an aluminium foil radiant barrier at the bottom. They are ideal for temperature-controlled sheds, poultry farms, agricultural buildings and light commercial structures where a reflective foil interior is acceptable.
Double Skin panels replace the foil bottom layer with a full profiled metal liner sheet (PPGI/GL/PPGL/AL), delivering a clean off-white interior finish, thicker insulation options (up to 50mm), higher structural strength and superior sound reduction. Double Skin is the preferred specification for warehouses, cold storage, food processing plants and chemical industries.
Single Skin METAhybrid® sheets are available with insulation thicknesses of 6mm, 12mm, 19mm and 24mm. Double Skin sheets are available in 19mm, 24mm, 30mm and 50mm insulation thicknesses. Thicker cores deliver lower U-values and superior thermal performance — the 50mm Double Skin panel is specified for cold storage, food processing and energy-efficiency-critical applications where maximum thermal resistance is required.
Yes. METAhybrid® thermal insulated roofing sheets are manufactured from 550 MPa high-tensile steel with a robust profiled top layer that is fully compatible with standard rooftop solar panel mounting systems. The strong profile provides the load-bearing capacity and fixing point integrity required for solar installation without additional structural reinforcement beneath. This makes METAhybrid® an energy-efficient roofing choice that can be further enhanced with on-site solar generation.
Both Single Skin and Double Skin METAhybrid® sheets are available with the following top layer facing materials:
• PPGI — Pre-painted galvanised steel (standard cost-effective option)
• GL — Galvalume (superior corrosion resistance for coastal and industrial environments)
• PPGL — Pre-painted galvalume (colour-coated with enhanced corrosion protection)
• AL — Aluminium (lightweight, corrosion-free for specialist applications)
The choice of facing depends on the environmental exposure, aesthetic requirement and target service life of the project.
Mineral wool (rockwool) core panels achieve Class A2-s1,d0 — the highest fire performance classification under the European reaction-to-fire standard EN 13501-1. This makes them suitable for use in high-risk occupancies, buildings over 18m, public assembly buildings, healthcare facilities and any project where the building regulations or insurer stipulate non-combustible roof construction.
Yes. METAhybrid® insulated panels are constructed from non-toxic and non-carcinogenic insulation materials — meeting occupational health and food-safety environment requirements. The sealed multi-layer panel construction does not provide nesting spaces for insects, birds or rodents, making it the preferred roofing choice for pharmaceutical industries, food processing plants, poultry farms and schools where hygiene standards are paramount.
