Kalzip as a lightning conductor

Product catalog summary
Overview: Kalzip® aluminium roof and wall cladding systems are designed to provide both architectural flexibility and effective lightning protection for various types of buildings, including industrial, commercial, public, and private structures. The system's versatility allows for innovative architectural designs while ensuring high performance and safety against lightning strikes.
Lightning Protection: Kalzip® systems serve as both a lightning arrestor and a protective screen. The aluminium profiled sheets can naturally conduct lightning, reducing the need for additional lightning protection devices. The probability of a damaging lightning strike is calculated to be once every 500 years, and any damage would be minimal and easily repairable.
Technical Requirements: For effective lightning conduction, Kalzip® sheets must be conductively connected to earth, with fully zipped seams ensuring contact. The roof sheets should be connected to conductive wall cladding or a reinforced sub-structure. For protective screening, the entire building envelope must be conductive and earthed, with specific requirements for coated sheets and window openings.
Contact Information: The document provides extensive contact details for Kalzip® representatives across Europe, America, the Middle East, and Asia/Pacific regions, ensuring accessibility for inquiries and support.
Disclaimer: The technical details are accurate as of the publication date, but the company reserves the right to make changes for product advancement.
