Making roof tiles more beautiful and durable: ArcelorMittal and DACHPOLL strengthen cooperation
Steel roofing is a popular choice in the construction and renovation market. The numerous advantages of steel roofing are what make it so convincing.
The advantages of steel roofing
The roof is one of the most visible, eye-catching elements of a house. If you are looking for an aesthetic, light, and easy-to-install roof with convenient options, all at an affordable price, then you should definitely consider steel roof tiles. It is a solution that has been successfully used for years for roofing in millions of homes and other types of buildings.
A wide range of organic coated steels for roofing applications
ArcelorMittal's range of organic coated Granite® steel for roofing offers a combination of a variety of textures and rich colours. For example: Granite® Storm works impeccably in demanding conditions, Granite® Ultramat offers a distinctive texture and matt finish, and Granite® Impression Cloudy is a steel with unique aesthetics including an appearance resembling natural materials such as clay or terracotta. These coatings are extremely durable and are corrosion and UV resistant.
Challenges in the creation of steel roof tiles
It would seem that there is nothing more pleasant when creating a steel roof tile than inventing its shape - a bend that will enhance the colour or reflect light in a unique way. However, not everyone is aware of the technical and material requirements that should or have to be met. Forming complex shapes on curved, convex, and concave surfaces in addition to the required flexibility of the varnish coat are challenging factors in the creation of steel roof tiles.
A partner in testing ArcelorMittal coatings
To ensure even longer use and greater durability of ArcelorMittal steel roofing, we began working with DACHPOLL to test Granite® Ultramat. Additionally, different tile shapes were tested by analysing bend radii. Thanks to our partner, the shape of the steel roof tiles have been adjusted in such a way so as not to exceed the required parameters for the varnish coat and to offer patterns of roof tiles that meet customers’ expectations.
About DACHPOLL
DACHPOLL have 40 years of experience in profiling roofing sheets and is a manufacturer of sheet metal profiling machines. DACHPOLL have also been conducting research in the field of profiling and sheet metal pressing for many years. A qualified team of engineers and specialists are constantly working to develop even better technological solutions in order to improve the quality of devices and products. As a result, their profiling machines are used by leaders in the roofing industry in Poland and abroad. The dynamic development of the company is also evident via the registration of several hundred industrial designs in patent offices in Poland, the European Union, Russia, and Ukraine. The patented industrial designs of DACHPOLL roofing sheets are currently setting trends in the roofing industry, and ArcelorMittal ensures that our Granite® Ultramat coating is being used at its best.

Ateliers 3S - Downtown chic with Granite®
Ateliers 3S create contemporary looks for urban areas with ArcelorMittal organic coated steels. Bacacier is a leading supplier of steel roofing, cladding, and flooring applications for industrial and commercial buildings in France. In 2012, the company created a new entity – Ateliers 3S – to work closely with architects who were building or refurbishing buildings in the centres of cities around Europe. Using organic coated steels from ArcelorMittal Europe – Flat Products, Ateliers 3S have developed a range of signature products specifically for the urban environment. One of the latest is the New York® range which allows architects to play with shapes and shades using a ‘toolbox’ of solutions.
Inspired by Phillipe Starck
“The idea for Ateliers 3S came when Jean-Christophe Vigouroux, CEO of the parent company Bacacier, met France’s best-known contemporary designer – Philippe Starck – back in 2011,” explains Julien Faisandier, managing director of Ateliers 3S. “That inspired us to create the Starck® range, the first in the Ateliers 3S portfolio. The range is designed as a toolkit which allows architects to design truly unique projects. It includes an exclusive colour palette, panels in five different designs, and a range of accessories.”
Mix and match approach
From there the Ateliers 3S family grew to include Cadence® and Epure®. Like the Starck® range, these products are based on different steels from ArcelorMittal Europe – Flat Products notes Julien Faisandier: “The exact grade we use depends on the aesthetics required by the customer, and the type of environment where the building is located. We use a lot of Granite® HDS and HDX, particularly in metallic colours.”
The Cadence® range includes 11 profiles with squared standing seams and 11 profiles with triangular seams. The products can be mixed and matched to create a specific design. The finish of these panels can be very tactile thanks to the use of ArcelorMittal products such as Granite® Quartz.”
The Epure® range is a standing seam solution from Ateliers 3S and utilises Granite® Storm from ArcelorMittal. It gives architects four zinc colour options and standing seam panels in four different widths. The colours and widths used on a facade can be mixed to create repeating or random patterns of seams and/or colours.
The latest in the series is New York® which represents a real change for Ateliers 3S. “New York® uses a special folding technique and allows architects to play with shapes and shades,” says Julien Faisandier.
Product consistency and support highly valued
The consistency of ArcelorMittal’s offer is a key consideration for Ateliers 3S notes Julien Faisandier: “When we send a sample to an architect, it can take 18 months for them to place an order. During this period, it is critical that the aesthetics of the steel do not change. ArcelorMittal’s ability to produce consistent products – sometimes years apart – is something we value greatly.”
Throughout the development of the Ateliers 3S family, the company has had a lot of support from ArcelorMittal’s Global R&D teams explains Julien Faisandier: “They provide a wealth of samples and advice at every stage in our development cycle. For example, ArcelorMittal helped with the saline tests we needed to conduct before the products could be placed on the market. We also appreciate the availability of the sales and technical teams, particularly when it comes to testing new steels.”
Floirac project
One recent project undertaken by Ateliers 3S saw the company supply over 20 000 m2 of panels from its Cadence® range. The material was used to clad 17 towers located in Floirac (south-west France) which accommodate 453 housing units. The panels were made from Granite® HDS in three different shades.
The project was jointly designed by TAAD Architectes and MOG Architectes. The architects’ specifications required a material which could insulate each building and give them a more modern and aesthetic appearance. To minimise disruption to residents, the Cadence® panels were fixed to a complex wooden frame in the factory and then attached to the buildings. The use of prefabrication enabled the large project to be completed in just six months.
Like all steel facades, the panels are maintenance-free. Due to the high-end coatings used on the steel, the Cadence® panels are guaranteed to remain beautiful for at least 30 years.
About Ateliers 3S
Ateliers 3S provide cladding applications for architectural projects including new builds and refurbishments. As well as supplying material to major projects, Ateliers 3S also provide solutions to individuals who are extending or refurbishing their existing homes.

Individual housing
While designing, building, and buying our new home, we want it to fit all of our needs. It must satisfy all of the requirements concerning functionality, aesthetics, and of course, be energy efficient.
Useful Information
MoreThe ideal home should meet the highest acoustic and fire resistance standards and various technical norms. The construction of a steel frame building is much more time efficient than the traditional technology. Steel frame buildings, which are very popular in North America, fulfil rigorous thermal requirements.
