According to Jason Voglis, it doesn't perform the same.\n\"When you actually break it down and you look at the different substrates and the coil coating technologies and the paints, they perform very differently.\"\nIn partnership with UniCote.\nJason is National Sales Manager at UniCote, part of INSPIRE, a division of Selection Steel. He joins Az to talk through what builders should know before they choose roofing and cladding, and why having a credible second supplier is about managing risk rather than ditching a supplier you're happy with.\nIn this episode:\nJason's move from real estate into steel, and what his team does with builders, architects, installers and roll formers\nThe misconception that all painted steel is the same, and how substrate, coating, warranty and price differ\nSupply shortages since COVID and why \"delays could mean make or break\" when builders are working on slim margins\n\"Imported equals inferior, and it's not the case.\" Jason on reputable mills, specifications and independent testing\nHow UniCote supplies through roll formers, and why Selection Steel uses two mills\nThe UniCote range as Jason describes it: Select (everyday), Coastal (for corrosive environments), Lux (architectural finishes inspired by timber, Corten, zinc, copper and brass) and Extreme (aluminium for the harshest coastal sites)\nChoosing the right product for a coastal site, and weighing warranty against cost\nWhy a premium product needs a premium experience to go with it\n\"You've got to have a premium product and then couple that with a premium experience for that customer. And that's what creates trust. That's what creates loyalty.\"\nCompany background as Jason describes it: Selection Steel has supplied steel into the Australian market since 1974 and launched its own UniCote painted range about 12 years ago.\nThis is The Good Builder Podcast.\n#TheGoodBuilder #TheGoodBuilderPodcast #AustralianBuilders #UniCote #SelectionSteel #Roofing...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/kfWyLokmOh8IknRiu8hFWliTL287_yQe0yBgRNp7WJc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8yZmE4/MDdmMWNmOWU1Yjc4/ZGU2OTIxYTcwOTk0/OTk3YS5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
