The Flashing & Trim Profile Roll Forming Machine is engineered for precision shaping of custom flashings, edge trims, corner pieces, and drip caps used widely across roofing and cladding projects. Designed to meet the highest standards of UK manufacturing, this roll forming solution is ideal for fabricators, builders, and metal roofing specialists across England, Wales, Scotland, and Ireland.
Capable of producing accurate, clean, and consistent profiles in a wide range of materials and gauges, this machine is essential for fabricating flashings and trims used to protect roofs, walls, and building joints from water ingress and enhance aesthetic finishes.
Whether operating in a high-output factory or as part of a bespoke fabrication setup, this machine delivers reliability, speed, and flexibility — all while being fully customizable to suit your exact trim profile requirements.
