Blade Roofing, a national roofing company providing commercial roofing solutions, recently carried out a roofing and cladding refurbishment of an industrial facility in the east Midlands.
Refurbishment is a great way to extend a building’s service life, improve aesthetics and create a better working environment, particularly with the benefits of natural daylight being provided by new GRP roofilghts as part of the overall project.
Blade Roofing’s strong relationship with HAMBLESIDE DANELAW meant Zenon GRP rooflights were an obvious choice. The assembly consisted of a Zenon Evolution LC1 weather sheet. Evolution LC1 uses continuous woven glass filament reinforcement, providing a product with exceptional strength, exceeding the expected performance of much heavier, thicker, traditionally reinforced rooflights.
The advanced manufacturing technology used in the production of this product results in a lower embodied carbon than traditionally reinforced rooflights. An insulant layer of 4 mm, twin-wall polycarbonate provided the rooflight with a U value of 1.5 W/m² K, contributing to compliance with Part L2. Blade Roofing completed the exterior refurbishment with the same high standard of work seen across all their projects.
Ben Gill, Head of Contracts for Blade Roofing, said:
"Working with Hambleside Danelaw on this challenging project was a testament to their exceptional service attitude. Despite numerous obstacles, their expertise and dedication ensured we found effective solutions every step of the way.
“Their commitment to excellence truly aligns with our own, making them a reliable partner we can always depend on."
