Hambleside Danelaw is proud to announce that two of its products have been shortlisted as ‘Most Innovative Product’ in the Pitched Roofing Awards 2024.
Innovation has always been a key ethos for Hambleside Danelaw, from the production of the original valley trough in 1997 to more recent developments. This prestigious award is granted to products which show high levels of creativity and innovation in fields such as manufacturing materials, production process, or installation method, and in being shortlisted, Hambleside Danelaw evidences its commitment to invention.
The two products shortlisted in the Pitched Roofing Awards are:
- InVerg®—the patented interlocking dry-verge system for plain tiles
- SwiftRidg®—the GRP alternative to heavy metal roll-top ridges
The InVerg® was released in 2020—a year remembered for things other than innovative roofing products—and has now been installed on over 1,500 properties across the UK. Compatible with most plain tiles, both single- and double-lap, InVerg® features a patented design which offers improved weather and wind resistance (GB Patent No. 2586153).
SwiftRidg® features a unique omegashaped GRP profile, and fixing kit. The patent-pending GRP system can withstand wind speeds of over 110 mph while offering an alternative to roll-top ridges made from metals such as lead, zinc and tin (Patent Application No. 2308115.1).
Hambleside Danelaw is looking forward to attending the Awards which will be held in Manchester, in November.
