Services
Metal Roofing Systems
IMETCO's metal roofing systems combine durability with aesthetic versatility, offering solutions like ZIP-RIB structural panels and TwinLok standing seam systems. Engineered for slopes as low as 1/4 per foot, these systems resist extreme weather while providing thermal efficiency. Our products meet UL 790 Class A fire ratings and FM 4450 approvals, ensuring compliance with hurricane and tornado-prone region requirements.
Rainscreen Wall Panels
The IntelliScreen rainscreen system integrates air barriers, stone wool insulation, and metal/terracotta cladding for energy-efficient facades. Its ventilated design prevents moisture buildup while allowing thermal movement. Customizable profiles like Latitude and Element panels offer architectural flexibility, with options for hurricane-resistant installations in coastal areas.
Edge Metal Solutions
PerformaEdge systems provide tested edge metal solutions for low-slope roofs, featuring fascia, coping, and gutter components engineered to withstand 160 mph wind loads. These systems exceed ASCE 7-22 requirements through concealed splice plates and integrated accessories, ensuring perimeter protection against wind uplift and water intrusion.
Custom Fabrication
Our fabrication specialists create bespoke metal solutions for unique architectural challenges, including curved panels, tapered sections, and oversized components. Using advanced manufacturing techniques, we produce custom elements up to 460 feet in length while maintaining strict quality control standards for complex projects.
Field Services
IMETCO's factory-authorized technicians provide on-site training, shop drawing reviews, and project inspections to ensure proper system installation. Services include 3D building scans for precision measurements and Whole Building Airtightness Testing coordination to meet modern energy code requirements.

Report
Worst company I have ever done business with. Don't trust there calcs, The "Lump Sum" price doesn't include tax or shipping. They don't own any of there mistakes and everything is the customers fault. Beware of doing business with this company.
