The current roofing and cladding industry has matured over the recent years and will continue to show constant growth in demand and acceptance. A lot of this comes with the heels of the growing awareness among people and the obvious advantages that it provides over other materials. The major challenges currently faced by manufacturers are the wide segmentation in the profiles that are available. Every manufacturer is trying to differentiate their product with a slightly different profile measurement, which, in a larger scheme creates confusion amongst buyers, who face difficulty in alignment and layering of newer sheets with existing ones during the installation process.
“We believe that for each type of profile, there should be a set of standard profile sizes. Buyers often also have a problem in understanding the number and measurements of sheets that will be required to fulfil their requirements. To help our customers, JBFS Engineering Systems have deployed a sheet calculator tool on our website. Proper installations of roofing and cladding sheets are very important for proper function and endurance in harsh weather conditions. JBFS Engineering Systems not only provide an installation manual with proper instructions for installation and handling, but also provide optional installation services to customers”, states Ramesh Bothra, CEO, JBFS Engineering Systems.
Reason for Excellence
Due to the suitable location of their manufacturing complex, in Howrah (West Bengal), JBFS Engineering Systems initially positioned themselves as a roofing and cladding sheet provider for Eastern and North Eastern regions. As the company grew in size, they started providing more options to the customers in terms of materials and coating options, and also catered to more regions. Today, JBFS Engineering Systems provide products and services pan-India and internationally with the unique proposition of being the one-stop shop of all steel structural requirements.
“The major differentiating factor that sets JBFS Engineering Systems apart from others is the unique capability to be the one-shop for our customers for all their structural requirements, including Roofing and Cladding sheets with Accessories, Skylight sheets, Air Ventilators, Purlins, Columns, Truss and Decking Sheets; becoming a single point comprehensive solution provider, ensuring that once the customers come to us, all they have to do thereafter is relax”, says the CEO.
