Sustainability
Embedded in our systems & our service
Choosing a sustainable partner is critical to delivering buildings that meet today’s environmental expectations and performance standards. As the demand for low-carbon, energy-efficient buildings grows, roofing design plays an increasingly important role.
By combining a dedicated and high-quality technical service with verified third-party certification, we help architects, contractors and developers make informed, forward-thinking specification choices that reduce environmental impact while maximising whole-life value.

End-to-End Support
Cool Roofs
Incorporating solar-reflective surfaces helps reduce heat absorption, improving energy efficiency and indoor comfort while mitigating the urban heat island effect.
Lower Carbon Emissions
PMMA systems are cold-applied and solvent-free, eliminating the need for hot works. This reduces on-site energy use, minimises emissions during installation and enhances overall site safety.
Built to Last
PMMA’s chemical structure is free from plasticisers and offers high tensile strength and elasticity. It withstands structural and thermal movement to deliver long-term and improved whole-life performance.
Maximising Green Credentials
Our systems are fully compatible with green and blue roof designs. When tested in accordance with FLL guidelines, PMMA membranes are root-resistant and capable of accommodating planting loads and post-build settlement.
Specification Considerations
We support specifiers with comprehensive technical data and independent certification, including third-party accreditations such as British Board of Agrément (BBA) certification, verifying performance against declared parameters.
