In its 25th year, Roofing, Cladding & Insulation Magazine has lead the UK roofing, cladding and insulation market since its inception in 1980. RCI's high editorial standards have made this magazine a 'must read' for the whole industry, and its ongoing success is unrivalled.
No other publication for this industry comes close to RCI either by volume and depth of quality editorial or through RCI's circulation of wholly industry-specific requested readership which is why RCI is often referred to as the bible of this industry, providing the most up to date company, products and trade name listings with main addresses, branches, sources, technical notes and industry editorial. This is widely acclaimed to be the best used annual for the industry.

RCI magazine has by far and away the most clearly defined, highly targeted and developed readership profile within its industry.
Established over 21 years this is the UK's leading industry publication with a circulation constantly evolving as the plethora of inter-company buy-ins, mergers or takeovers transact themselves. Reader records are updated on a daily basis as we constantly mail or telephone new and existing readers using the strict verification procedures as laid down by the Audit Bureau of Circulation (ABC) who independently audit and endorse the 100% requested readership circulation (May 2004 Audit).
Advertisers enjoy a sure-fire dedicated active audience when using RCI or RCI Annual Directory as every single reader is totally involved in this Industry.
