Weckman Progantti roofing is available with an environmentally friendly, almost fossil-free steel as a material option. The material is SSAB Zero™, which is recycled steel produced with fossil-free electricity and biogas. This means you can choose a more environmentally friendly Weckman steel roof than before.
Zero steel is available in Progantti 0.6 mm thickness.
The first production batch of Progantti from Zero steel was completed in autumn 2023. Of standing seam roofs manufactured in Finland, only Weckman Progantti is produced with electricity generated by solar energy.

The environmental impact of construction can be influenced already at the design stage by choosing a low-carbon material. The durability and easy maintenance of roofing material reduce maintenance costs during the roof’s lifecycle. Together, these reduce the building’s overall carbon footprint and environmental impact.
A steel roof has a long lifecycle and the material comes with a technical warranty of up to 50 years. With proper maintenance, the lifecycle is practically decades longer. At the end of its service life, both the builder and the environment appreciate its 100% recyclability.
