Coppa Gutta
Copper rainwater goods
Copper guttering offers the customer an economical and environmentally safe guttering system whilst adding real value and presence to a property.
Our standard sizes of Ogee, Half round and Box section copper gutter are generally larger than most of the equivalent sections currently available in the UK. As a result, our standard profiles can handle rainwater run off more effectively. As an added bonus the number of downpipes required can often be reduced. This is particularly important on new build properties where less outlets means fewer drains, manholes and groundworks thus reducing overall building costs.
Our large sizes of Ogee, Half round and Box section copper gutter are designed to handle a significant water volume and are suited for the larger property as well as commercial and industrial units. These profiles offer up to 40% more capacity compared to other so called 'industrial' profiles. As a result there is again potential to reduce overall building costs.
• Easy to fit.
• Larger profiles than similar plastic profiles resulting in:-
• Fewer downpipes.
