Update December 2020

ArcelorMittal Europe – Flat Products has developed an online Roofing Configurator. The tool enables users to design a new roof from the comfort of their home or office using ArcelorMittal’s Granite^® range of organic coated steels for roofing applications. Customers can apply the results to an image of their home to see how the new roof will look. And they can choose from a list of roofing companies who are able to carry out the work. The tool has already been deployed in Poland, and ten Polish roofing companies have signed up to be part of the project.

The Roofing Configurator was developed by ArcelorMittal and Multimedia Communication.
The tool was launched in June 2020. It is designed to be used by private customers, roofers, installers, architects, designers, planning authorities and other construction partners.

The Roofing Configurator includes several features which facilitate the design process. For example, customers who are renovating an existing building can estimate the surface area of the roof from a Google Map image of their building, a PDF, or an image file. They can also choose different products from ArcelorMittal’s organic coated offer and simulate how those products will look using an image of the building.

Partners help customers realise their dream roof

Once they have defined their new roof, customers can contact one of the ten roofing companies who are part of the project. The companies include: Balex Metal, Blachdom Plus, Blachprofil2, Blachy Pruszyński, Budmat, Budmax-Metal, Dachpol, Inter-max, Mar-Jola, and Regamet.

“ArcelorMittal’s Roofing Configurator is a modern and effective tool,” notes Robert Falkowski, purchasing director for Budmat. “It is especially useful during the COVID-19 pandemic. Potential customers can choose the configuration of their new roof, take the necessary measurements, and contact the manufacturer without leaving their home.”

“Customers who have used the Configurator have been encouraged by the completeness of our offer,” says Małgorzata Lubczyńska, marketing director for Pruszyński. “They also appreciate the Configurator’s advanced tools which enable them to visualise their new roof.”
