Work Starts on New Stadium Cladding
THE INSTALLATION of new wall cladding on the Main Stand at Raith Rovers (RRFC) stadium begins today, 24 June.
The stand has remained largely untouched for almost 100 years, aside from the installation of a new roof in 1999. The club says the new signature deep blue cladding will revitalise the stand ready for the upcoming 2024/25 season.
Cladding Upgrade Underway
The work is being carried out by suppliers of roofing and cladding services for industrial buildings, Industrial Roofing Scotland, as part of its new commercial partnership with the football club.
As a Gold Partner and Official Cladding Supplier of Raith Rovers, Industrial Roofing Scotland’s brand will be presented across all of the club’s social media channels as well as on physical branding inside the ground.
The roofing firm will also become the first ever sponsor of the RRFC Business Club.
Dean Mckenzie, Club General Manager said: “We are delighted to be teaming up with Industrial Roofing Scotland to deliver a new look for the stadium’s Main Stand ahead of the new season.
“The proposals for the new frontage, as well as creating a new and inviting experience for fans, will also enhance the building’s durability and energy efficiency, which is great from a commercial perspective.”
Industrial Roofing Scotland Director Jamie Morton added: “It’s exciting times at Industrial Roofing Scotland, we are evolving day-by-day, very similar to what’s going on at Raith Rovers.
“We are thrilled to be joining the fray and look forward to supporting the club in their hunt for promotion this season.”
Work is set to last around five weeks.
