2.3. Metalroof (LLC “Metal Roofing”)
Market Position Analysis:
Metalroof is not just a materials seller, it’s a full-cycle engineering company occupying the niche of architecturally complex and elite roofing. Working since 2007, the company has established itself as an expert in working with “eternal” materials: copper roofing, titanium-zinc, aluminum and slate. Their portfolio includes iconic objects of national significance, such as the domes of Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, Donetsk railway station and elite residential complexes (Comfort Town, Hoffman-Haus).
Product Expertise and Technologies:
Metalroof’s unique advantage is having a mobile fleet of rolling mills. This allows manufacturing standing seam panels directly at the construction site. This approach eliminates length limitations (usually limited by truck length – 13 m) and allows covering slopes of any length without transverse seams, which guarantees against leaks.
The company also specializes in manufacturing church domes, spires and complex radial surfaces using “checkerboard” and “scale” techniques, requiring the highest qualification of sheet metal workers.
Reputation and Customer Experience:
Metalroof actively maintains a YouTube channel where they share expert reviews and demonstrate the installation process, forming a high level of trust. They don’t hide the complexity of processes and openly discuss the nuances of operating different metals (for example, copper patination).
Brief Company Description (Summary):
Metalroof is a leading engineering company specializing in the most complex roofing projects using elite materials (copper, titanium-zinc, aluminum).
Key advantages: Ability to roll standing seam panels directly on site (seamless slopes of any length). Unique experience in installing domes and complex geometric shapes. Portfolio includes iconic Ukrainian objects.
Contacts: +38 (044) 207-37-33, metalroof.ua, Kyiv region, Kalynivka village.
Why contact: The only alternative for architecturally complex projects, restoration of historical buildings and clients who want a roof with a service life of over 100 years.
2.4. Pruszynski
Market Position Analysis:
Polish holding Pruszynski is one of the largest players in the metal structures market in Central and Eastern Europe. In Ukraine, the company is represented by a powerful factory and a wide dealer network. They are known for their systematic approach and implementation of European quality standards.
Product Expertise:
The main product in the standing seam roofing niche is RetroLine panels. This is a modern interpretation of classic seam with a “click” lock. The company’s engineers developed special oval mounting holes along the panel edge. This technical solution allows the metal to freely expand and contract with temperature fluctuations, eliminating the risk of “waviness” – the main aesthetic flaw of smooth metal roofs.
The company offers a wide selection of coatings, including Purmat and Purlak, which have high fade resistance. All products are marked, protecting consumers from counterfeits.
Logistics and Service:
Thanks to departments in every regional center (from Uzhhorod to Kharkiv), Pruszynski ensures fast logistics and technical support. The company provides detailed installation instructions and conducts training for contractors.
Brief Company Description (Summary):
Pruszynski is part of a European industrial holding, guaranteeing stable quality and technology. Flagship product – RetroLine standing seam panels.
Key advantages: Engineered panels with ready-made mounting holes for compensating metal thermal expansion (prevents deformation). Wide range of European polymer coatings and complete roofing package.
Contacts: (044) 492-76-86, pruszynski.com.ua, offices in all regional centers.
Why contact: Reliable European brand with developed logistics, offering a technologically advanced product that forgives minor installation errors thanks to the expansion compensation system.
2.5. Thermasteel
Market Position Analysis:
“Thermasteel” Factory, located in Poltava, is a powerful player in the pre-engineered buildings (PEB) and enclosure structures market. Their specialization is an industrial approach to quality and volumes. The company successfully competes both in the private construction segment and in large commercial projects.
Product Expertise:
The standing seam roofing range includes panels of two types: classic smooth and with additional stiffening ribs (micro-profiling). Stiffening ribs are an important element as they add strength to panels and hide possible sheathing irregularities.

Thermasteel declares the service life of its products from 25 to 100 years, depending on the chosen metal type and coating.
