High-quality UPE profiles for structures and industrial projects
MelnaisMetāls.LV offers a selection of high-quality UPE profiles designed for effective load distribution and structural reliability in both industrial and civil construction. Our UPE profiles comply with European standards and are trusted by professionals throughout Latvia, the Baltics and Scandinavia.
UPE U-Channel assortment
We supply hot-rolled UPE channels in a variety of sizes and cross-sections, with standard lengths of L-6050mm and L-12100mm, as well as custom lengths upon request. Produced according to EN 10025 standard, our UPE channels are available in steel grades such as S235 and S355. UPE channels are characterized by their parallel flange surfaces, which simplify assembly and allow for excellent load-bearing alignment.
UPN U-Channel uses
Our UPE channels are widely used in structural and mechanical engineering, including:
- Frame structures in buildings and bridges;
- Support elements in platforms and industrial floors;
- Construction of racks, trailers, and equipment frames;
- Roof trusses and purlins;
- Retaining walls and edge reinforcements.
Thanks to their symmetrical and parallel flange design, UPE channels are easy to weld, bolt, and align with other structural components, ensuring clean connections and precise assembly.

Frequently asked questions about UPE U-channels
How does a UPE profile differ from a UPN profile?
UPE profiles have parallel flange surfaces, whereas UPN profiles have tapered flanges. UPE profiles provide easier assembly and more precise connections, especially in industrial constructions.
What standards apply to UPE profiles?
UPE profiles are manufactured according to the EN 10025 standard, which specifies the quality and mechanical properties of steel.
What steel grades are available?
Steel grades S235 and S355 are available. S355 provides higher strength and is suitable for structures with higher loads.
What lengths are available?
Standard lengths are L‑6050 mm and L‑12100 mm, but we also provide cutting to individual lengths.
Are UPE profiles suitable for welding?
Yes, UPE profiles are easily weldable, thanks to the parallel flange surfaces and the uniform material thickness.
In which projects are UPE profiles most frequently used?
UPE profiles are popular in frame construction, industrial platforms, uprights, trailers, roof structures, and retaining walls.
Do you offer delivery and metalworking?
Yes, we provide cutting, drilling, surface treatment, and fast delivery throughout Latvia.
