Tile-profile sheets and timber at Vendelbocentret • Soldalhus in Sindal

10,000 m² of corrugated steel sheets set the tone for a major development in Sindal

On the outskirts of Sindal stands a development in which form, function and materials have been conceived as a cohesive architectural whole. The new Vendelbocenter, designed by CUBO Architects and built by NCC for Hjørring Municipality, comprises six residential units with a total of 96 care homes, as well as a central section featuring an activity centre, training facilities, a nursing clinic and a café.

A distinctive element of the development’s appearance can be found on the roof. Pandeplade 22-270 in GreenCoat® Pro BT Matt Silver has been installed here, giving the buildings a calm and distinctive appearance. The silver-coloured steel cladding is used for the roofing, flashings and gutters, creating a clear sense of cohesion across the large building complex.

Around 10,000 m² of corrugated steel sheets have been installed with fixings at the crest of the corrugations on spacer blocks. This gives the many roof surfaces their distinctive profile while highlighting the precision of the installation throughout this extensive project.

Steel and timber create contrast at Vendelbocenter

While steel defines the roof surfaces, timber plays an important role in the appearance of the façades. The combination of silver-coloured steel cladding and warm timber cladding creates a clear contrast between the materials and gives the many buildings a varied yet cohesive appearance.

Pandeplade 22-270 is a classic profiled steel sheet that can be used as both roof and façade cladding. The profile’s corrugations add structure and visual interest to large surfaces, while the range of colours and surface coatings offers excellent scope for adapting the steel profiles to the architecture of each individual development.
