Why GreenCoat PLX?
- Sustainable colour coated Swedish Steel solutions for roofs, façades and rainwater systems including standing seam systems.
- The top coating contains rapeseed oil which is much more sustainable than pure fossil fuels.
- By 2032, SSAB will have factories that will be fully reliant on renewable energy to produce their steel, being the only steel manufacturer taking this approach. They are already in the process of trialling.

GreenCoat PLX SSAB Colour Coated Steel
GreenCoat® is the brand for innovative, sustainable colour coated Swedish Steel solutions for roofs, façades and rainwater systems including standing seam systems. Widely used in sustainable architecture, GreenCoat® products offer an extensive range of colours and coatings with Swedish rapeseed oil.
The unique, patented BT coatings (Bio-based Technology) offer environmental advantages, as well as increased performance. GreenCoat products are highly resistant to corrosion, scratches and UV radiation. This lightweight material is easy to work with, even at temperatures as low as -15 degrees C.
GreenCoat PLX was developed alongside Swedish metal roofers over 50 years ago. It consists of Nordic quality steel in the core with a zinc anti-corrosion coating, followed by a primer. The top coating (containing Swedish rapeseed oil) gives the material its final colour.
As a high-quality metal roofing and cladding material, GreenCoat PLX can be used fully supported standing seams, shingles and reveal panels. Used extensively throughout Europe and Sweden, it can withstand harsh climates where summers are warm and winters very cold.
GreenCoat PLX has no spring-back, allowing very tight folding. The high strength and guaranteed long-life of GreenCoat PLX ensures that it is an excellent alternative. It can be used for industrial, commercial, residential or renovation applications where factors such as appearance, mechanical resistant, fire safety and long-life are important.
