CladFab Services

Precision Trade
Fabrication.

Ireland's dedicated trade-only workshop for custom metal cladding. From HVAC trays and lobster bends to high-spec vessel cladding, we fabricate drawing specifications at speed. Integrated directly with Site Measure, our measuring pages — measurements go straight to the MABI line.

01 — The Machinery

Swiss machinery,
Dublin workshop.

Most fabricators never show you the floor. This is exactly what your measurements run on — a Swiss-built MABI line, the standard across Europe's specialist insulation workshops, fed by 100 cm wide aluminium coil in our Dublin 12 unit.

MABI Bingo 16-Z Classic

The universal machine at the heart of the line. It cuts and punches every flat pattern sent from Site Measure, then rolls the metal and swages both ends in the same pass — one machine from measurement to assembly-ready fitting.

Forming

MABI swaging machine

A dedicated MABI swager backs the main line — it presses the stiffening beads and slip-joint swages (the shaped edges that let finished sections slide together weather-tight) onto rolled sections.

Irish-registered Irish-made.
