Saint-Gobain Pipelines’ Classical PLUS range of pre-painted, ready to install cast iron rainwater systems continues to be the specifiers’ choice for homes of all architectural types, old or new.
The inherent good looks and durability of Classical PLUS has long been popular for buildings where traditional aesthetics, strength and longevity are important considerations. The range, which was previously only available in ‘half round’ gutters and round downpipes, has now been expanded to include the Ogee gutter profile – a decorative gutter particularly favoured for Victorian and Georgian style buildings and the self-build market.
To further enhance the range, Saint-Gobain Pipelines has added colour to Classical PLUS with a choice of six new colours. Cast iron is predominantly installed black, however the Classical PLUS range is also available in green, blue, red, light and dark brown, and grey, to satisfy the occasions when other colours would be more appropriate.
The durable Polymer coating is factory applied to a consistent standard and does not require additional labour time for under coating and top coating prior to installation, thus the installed time is reduced by up to 60%. When used with Saint-Gobain’s gutter fitting kits, installation can be completed in one day. Tested to 1000 hours of salt spray, the coating has a proven track record for exterior metal applications.
