Wienerberger India launched a complete set of roof protection accessories- Koramic Roof System Components (KRSC) this year. The accessories include roofing underlays, insulating material, and other accessories. The components offer complete protection from heat and moisture, and long-lasting products that give continuous protection from water leakage at all vulnerable areas of the roof. These roofing systems are quick and easy to install and have roofed more than 1,500 households across South India.
The Koramic Roof Systems Components include:
Pitch roofs are a common feature for independent houses especially in hill stations and coastal areas owning to various functional attributes as well as the aesthetic standpoint. To suit the attributes, the tiles used for pitched roofs must be strong, robust and flexible.
Wienerberger’sKoramic&Tondach tile solutions are genuine terracotta tiles that come in a wide range of profiles, finishes, and colors that give the architect enough design flexibility. The solution also offers the best protection for houses against weather and wet conditions. They are durable, energy-efficient and color that does not fade over time. They have covered over 200,000 sq.mts. roof in South India alone. On average, the company’s clay roof solution covers 290,000+ roofs worldwide in a year and is a consistent leader in roof tile manufacturing in Europe for nearly two centuries.
Also, in places where there are heavy rainfalls, like Kerala where last year there was 42% more rainfall recorded than the previous years, erratic weather conditions make it necessary for roof tiles to have inbuilt defence mechanisms against such harsh conditions.
MonnandaAppaiah, MD, Wienerberger India, adds, “A building’s roof is the first real line of defence against the heat and rain. In an extreme hot climatic condition, a good roof should be able to release – not store or absorb- the sun’s rays. Cooling is one of the major concerns in building tropical houses along with rain waterproofing.” From a technical point of view, a good roof tile along with the appropriate accessories ensures the creation of a perfect roof. Wienerberger offers a one-stop roofing system that can help both the house owner and the roofer in selecting the right roofing solution for the project.”
