RigiSystems’ Ziplok standing seam profile has been used on the roof of the £27m Peak indoor sports complex at Stirling sports village

The cladding profiles are supported on RigiSystems’ structural decking profiles, giving a clean, uncluttered look to the interior of the building. The decking was made of steel in the case of the sports halls and aluminium for the swimming pool area in order to cope with the humidity. In each case the decking was web-perforated to provide suitable sound absorption within the building, and the system provides a U-value of 0.25 W/m2K.
