The construction industry relies on companies who know their product inside-out and can supply it where and when it’s needed. At Midland Lead, we’re proud to have supplied to the construction industry for decades, building strong relationships with independent and national merchants and contractors.
We’ve supplied well over 600,000 tonnes of lead for construction use on buildings throughout the world! Let’s explore why the construction industry relies on lead...
Lead roofs last and last. If lead is properly treated and correctly installed, the BBA states that our machine cast lead has an ultimate life in excess of 60 years
It’s a 100% recyclable material. And, at Midland Lead we only produce using 100% recycled lead.
Lead is an impervious barrier. Nothing can get through. The weight of lead also prevents roofs from lifting in windy conditions.
Lead is the ultimate malleable metal. Expert roofers can craft it into complex shapes and even bend it around pipes.
Lead has been used on roofs for centuries – so choosing lead today retains the character and history of heritage buildings
Although often associated with traditional buildings, lead is prized for its elegance and style in contemporary buildings too.

“People do business with people and we hit if off right from the start with Midland Lead. The factory tour was a real eye opener for me and I appreciated the attention to detail that Midland Lead carried out in all of their manufacturing processes. Not only is the product high quality and exactly what we specified, the customer service was excellent from start to finish”

We supply free lead to colleges and Roofing Training Groups around the UK. Not just because it gives us a warm fuzzy feeling to help out! But because we want to play our part in addressing the skills shortage in construction, and training the next generation of skilled roofers. Students are able to get hands-on with lead at our manufacturing site in Derbyshire, and learn why it’s a durable, sustainable building material.
