When you need new materials, it is easy to associate a few familiar product types with your usual supplier. But having access to a much broader range can make sourcing materials for a project considerably simpler.
Alongside the products our customers regularly rely on, Edge Building Products also supplies a number of products that you may be less familiar with. From underground drainage and composite decking to aluminium window trims and polycarbonate roof sheets, there is more available than you might expect.
Here are some of the product categories worth knowing about if you didn’t already!
Underground Drainage
Drainage is an essential part of many construction projects, but it is not always the first category you might associate with Edge.
We supply a comprehensive range of underground drainage products designed to collect and transport rainwater and wastewater away from buildings and surrounding areas. Our range includes underground pipes, manholes, soakaway crates, and channel drains.
Our wider drainage offering also includes guttering and downpipes, with solutions available in materials and profiles to suit different applications.
For projects where effective water management is important, the right drainage system can help protect buildings and surrounding areas from water damage while ensuring water is directed where it needs to go.
If you have specific requirements or are unsure which drainage products are suitable for your project, our team can assist with your questions.
Composite Decking
Composite decking provides an alternative to traditional timber decking, combining the appearance of wood with a number of practical benefits.
Our range includes WPC decking options with different finishes, colours, and board lengths, giving you flexibility when choosing the right solution for your project. Triton Decking, for example, includes woodgrain and grooved finishes – with matching fixing systems and accessories also available.
Composite decking can be used across a wide range of applications, including:
- Private homes and gardens
- Parks and recreational grounds
- Caravan and camping sites
- Outdoor spaces and other landscaping projects
Composite decking offers a durable, low-maintenance alternative to traditional timber. Manufactured using wood fibres and recycled plastic, our range is designed to provide long-lasting performance, with benefits including resistance to rot, warping, and twisting.
Aluminium Window Trims
Aluminium window trims are another product available from Edge that you may not immediately associate with our wider range.
They can provide a practical finishing solution around window installations, making them a useful product to consider when sourcing materials for projects involving windows and external finishes.
Whether you are already familiar with aluminium window trims or are simply looking to broaden the range of products you source from one supplier, they are another option available from Edge.
Polycarbonate Roof Sheets
Polycarbonate roof sheets are a versatile roofing and glazing solution, offering a lightweight alternative to traditional materials.
Manufactured from a thermoplastic polymer, these sheets are known for their durability and impact resistance. They are suitable for a variety of applications, including residential and commercial roofing, greenhouses, canopies, and other structures where a lightweight roofing material is required.
Polycarbonate sheets are available in different sizes, thicknesses, and colours, making them adaptable to different requirements. Their lightweight nature also makes them easier to transport, handle, cut, and install.
Our range also includes solid polycarbonate sheets. For example, our 2mm clear solid polycarbonate sheet is available in an 8ft x 4ft format and is suitable for applications including picture glazing, signage, temporary glazing, and single glazing.
