Gutter Downpipes

Our steel downpipes are the heavy duty alternative to fragile plastic systems, designed to withstand the physical demands of agricultural and industrial environments. Fabricated from prime British steel, they provide a sleek, colour matched finish that guarantees a matching, professional look from the roofline to the ground.

Impact-Resistant Steel Construction: Far superior to uPVC, our steel pipes won't crack or shatter if struck, making them ideal for high-traffic areas like livestock sheds and industrial yards.

Complete Colour Coordination: Available in our full range of Plastisol and Polyester finishes to ensure your rainwater system perfectly matches your flashings and sheets.

Seamless Jointing System: Designed to work perfectly with our matching hoppers and outlets for a secure, leak-proof vertical drainage solution.

Weather and UV Stable: The high-performance coating prevents the fading and "chalking" commonly seen in plastic pipes, maintaining a "new-build" look for decades.

What is Anti-Con? | Dripstop™ Anti-Condensation Technology

Anti-Con is an effective solution to combat the effects of water condensation on the underside of your roof cladding which if left unchecked can damage machinery, spoil livestock bedding and ruin stored goods.

We apply the Anti-Con Dripstop™ lining during the manufacturing process, rolling it along with the steel through our profiling mill, applying it to the reverse of the roof sheet. We leave the overlaps free of Anti-Con, so water doesn’t get drawn into the laps.

It’s recommended to use Anti-Con wherever condensation should be kept under control, or in areas of high humidity such as:

Chill Rooms
Food Storage
Workshops
Equestrian & Agricultural Buildings
Garden Sheds & Summer Houses
Garages
Grain Stores

How it works

As a condensation control membrane fleece, Anti-Con Dripstop™ absorbs the condensation and prevents it from dripping down. For it to work effectively, we recommend the ridge and eaves be left open without the use of foam fillers for ventilation, allowing the membrane to dry between cycles.

We recommend a minimum roof pitch of 10° when using Anti-Con, so if you have a roof pitch below this, please get in touch with our team on 01278 557 002 or email info@colourcladprofiles.com.

When used in livestock buildings, the humidity generated is much higher than normal which is why we recommend the use of Anti-Con in these situations. The table below shows area requirement per animal to keep the humidity levels under 80gm/m²/ hour.

Horses	500kg	361 gm/hour	4.51m
