The UK’s longest indoor ski slope designed by Faulknerbowns Architects and built by contractor Sir Robert McAlpine has been successfully completed utilising KeyBEMO® 400 profile roofing. The landmark building stands 100 feet high and has a 15° slope making it one of the most distinctive buildings in UK today.

CF - 002

KeyBEMO® 400/65 Natural Stucco Embossed was chosen for its ease of installation, 25 year warranty and site rolling abilities.

All sheets were rolled on site at ground level and successfully installed by McVeigh Insulation Ltd. The total slope length was approx 240 metres which was installed in 3 separate sections, including cranked sheet lengths.

The main slope length is 180 metres but also contains a beginners slope and 60 metre luge as well as Alpine Village and over 2,000 tonnes of snow.
