The technical team at Building Systems UK (an enterprise of Tata Steel) have designed an online tool to help architects specify compatible products that suit the needs of individual projects.

Called Spec Gen, the tool ensures all roofing and cladding components listed in a specification are compatible and perform as a system under the Platinum Plus 25-year guarantee. 

It also stores the individual specifications in ‘my projects’ for easy access. 

Creating a Platinum Plus specification provides free access to the Building Systems UK technical team who support architects from design to completion - including final checks at installation.

Platinum Plus incorporates only the highest quality components that are designed to do what they say and provide unrivalled choice and flexibility in the specification of a building envelope.

Its many benefits and the reassurance it provides sets Platinum Plus apart from other guarantees, making it the number one choice to truly lower the cost of ownership throughout the life of a building.
