With greenery and photovoltaics, the roofs of new and existing buildings make a valuable contribution to environmental protection and security of supply. Durable, weather- and fire-resistant building protection mats made from recycled rubber granulate (ELT) provide sustainable protection for roofs against damage and moisture. The hard-wearing, spade and rot-proof mats offer maximum roof protection and are optionally equipped with an integrated drainage layer.
Urban planning of the future relies on climate-friendly building greening
Green roofs store up to 80% of rainwater and slowly evaporate it again, which ensures a more balanced climate. The green roof produces fresh oxygen, filters polluted air, absorbs radiation and protects the roof from the weather and mechanical wear and tear. The use of robust protective mats made of rubber granulate (ELT) makes green roofs and photovoltaic systems even more climate-friendly and resource-saving.
To protect the waterproofing and insulation of green roofs from roots and excess water in the long term, robust building protection mats made from recycled rubber granulate (ELT) are the first choice. The hard-wearing, spade- and rot-resistant mats offer maximum protection for the roof and are optionally equipped with an integrated drainage layer. A filter fleece on the surface allows liquids to seep through reliably. Evenly profiled, the underside of the appropriately equipped mat ensures reliable drainage.
Sustainable energy generation also reduces electricity costs
Almost 2.2 million photovoltaic systems currently supply around 10% of the electricity produced in Germany. Private households can reduce their electricity costs with a photovoltaic system and contribute to climate protection at the same time. Even a solar installation on the roof of a single-family home (rated output 5 kW) reduces annual CO2-emissions by around three tonnes.
Roof waterproofing can be protected from damage by the elements of photovoltaic systems with building protection mats made of rubber granulate (ELT). The highly resistant mats and protective layers also ensure the long-term stability of solar installations. They are extremely robust, resilient, flame-retardant and resistant to flying sparks and radiant heat.
Building protection mats made of rubber granulate (ELT) are available in various designs, for different requirements/loads and various roof types/surfaces. Depending on the load, you can choose between sheets or panels in various dimensions and thicknesses. The hard-wearing recycled rubber granules (ELT) are also used to produce walkway slabs for maintenance work on roofs.
