Roofing manufacturer Onduline has launched a new roofing system under the name INNOLINE, and is running the launch through its existing partnership with distributor Ariel Plastics, which will carry it nationwide. The announcement is framed as strengthening that distribution relationship rather than a standalone product drop, which suggests Ariel Plastics will be the primary UK route to market for the new range.
Onduline is best known in the UK for lightweight corrugated bitumen roofing sheets aimed at sheds, summerhouses, stables, garden rooms and other outdoor buildings, where a full felt-and-batten or tiled roof is overkill. If INNOLINE follows that pattern, it is likely aimed at the same outbuilding market rather than main-roof construction, but the source material does not confirm the material makeup, sheet dimensions, fixing method or pricing, so treat that as an informed guess rather than a confirmed spec.
Why this matters for UK trades
Garden rooms and outbuildings have been a steady source of work for builders and landscapers over the past few years, and roofing is one of the areas where a quick, low-skill-threshold system saves time on smaller jobs that don't justify a full roofing crew. A new system from an established name like Onduline, sold through a distributor with nationwide reach, is worth a look next time you're pricing an outbuilding roof — but confirm specification, coverage rates and price directly with Ariel Plastics before quoting a job, since none of that detail has been published yet.
