Early engagement delivers maximum cost savings
Frameclad produce one of the largest ranges of steel sections available in the UK today. This enables us to deliver exceptional versatility, quality and precision – all from a single manufacturer. Meeting requirements for U, C, Z or S-sections, this adaptability combined with our advanced manufacturing capabilities, help us achieve a wide spectrum of complex specifications.
Our steel framing systems can be used across all construction sectors and as a non-combustible solution, can be specified above 18 metres. With the Building Safety Act driving higher standards across the construction industry, developers are turning to Frameclad’s panelised and modular solutions to deliver safer, faster and compliant loadbearing and non-loadbearing structures.
Digitally Designed – Precision Engineered
We exploit Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA) principles to deliver a comprehensive range of precision-engineered light steel framing systems – both loadbearing and non-loadbearing. Adopting an industrialised construction approach, we use cutting-edge cold roll-forming technology integrated with custom Tekla software, ensuring unparalleled accuracy and quality through a highly automated process.
Our 14-strong in-house design and engineering team, backed by years of experience and technical expertise – provide cost estimates within 10 days and detailed designs within one week. This approach delivers efficiency and speed from concept to completion.
Circular Credentials
Light steel frame is the benchmark for circular construction, combining exceptional durability with outstanding long-term performance. As one of the world’s most recyclable materials, steel can be reused and recycled indefinitely without compromising its structural integrity,
Our steel has always been produced with a strong focus on sustainability, containing around 60% recycled content. Frameclad is once again spearheading the charge to take sustainability to another level with the launch of ECO-LSF. Produced from 100% recycled content using Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) technology, powered by renewable sources – this milestone marks a major step in our commitment to low-carbon construction and the future of responsible building practices.
Structural Strength
Offering the best strength to weight ratio of all construction materials, our light steel frame systems are often used for buildings where additional structural strength is essential, but a lightweight solution is required. Lighter structures not only reduce material consumption but also concrete in the ground with foundation loads and sizes reduced by over 70% relative to blockwork construction.
Trusted & Widely Specified
Light steel frame is the most technically advanced material in the offsite technology portfolio. As members of the Light Steel Frame Association (LSFA), and Steel Construction Institute (SCI), we are keen to spread the word about the cost, safety, productivity, performance and sustainability benefits of contemporary light steel systems.
