BIPVco Integrated Solar Powerply is a single ply membrane roofing product with integrated solar cells. Factory applied PV cells are integrated directly onto the approved single ply membrane to create a roofing system that can be installed in the same way as a conventional roof. < Back Next > Sustainable buildings and architecture are an utmost consideration for architects for the built environment of the future. Building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) is fast becoming the architect’s preferred approach for integrating solar PV into a buildings architecture. We understand the challenges from the architectural, construction contracting and thermo-mechanical viewpoints – this is a highly challenging sector for solar module manufacturers. We combine form and function by combining established construction products with cutting-edge solar solutions. BIPVco is committed to factory incorporation of PV functionality to the building fabric to drive quality and value, and facilitate integrated solar architectural solutions. Collaborating with significant building envelope substrate and component manufacturers, we can offer sympathetically integrated solar-powered roof and wall solutions. The thin film flexible solar cells are infused directly into contemporary building envelope substrates of metals such as steel, aluminium, stainless steel and zinc or non-metals such as TPO single-ply membranes, polycarbonate sheets and certain types of plastics. Our range of applications is constantly expanding, and BIPVco welcomes the opportunity to work with ambitious architects and designers to extend BIPVco’s range of new applications and fulfil the design brief without compromise.

Elevate Isogard HD Cover Board The ISOGARD HD cover board spreads the load and protects the insulation boards underneath. It combines impact resistance and ease of installation in a single durable product. It is also an excellent choice for refurbishment projects, used as recovery board over the existing roofing system. < Back Next > ISOGARD™ HD ADDED STRENGTH AND PROTECTION FOR FLAT ROOFS Elevate’s ISOGARD HD cover board is a 12.7 mm thick, high-density, closed-cell polyisocyanurate (PIR) foam core laminated on both sides to a mineral coated fiberglass facer. When foot traffic on the roof is heavy, mineral wool insulation runs the risk of being crushed or, in the case of plastic foam insulation, the adhesion of the facer to the foam can be affected. The ISOGARD HD cover board spreads the load and protects the boards underneath. It combines impact resistance and ease of installation in a single durable product. It is also an excellent choice for refurbishment projects, used as recovery board over the existing roofing system. ISOGARD HD can be applied over existing as well as new roof surfaces and under fully adhered or mechanically attached single-ply roofing membranes. Features and benefits Outstanding performance ISOGARD HD has the highest thermal performance of any 12 mm rigid cover board and is resistant to extreme weather conditions. It has a superior wind uplift performance, lays flat and requires fewer fasteners per board compared to 25 mm insulation boards. Lightweight A single 1.22 m x 2.25 m ISOGARD HD cover board weighs only 5 kg, resulting in easy handling and placement. Quick and easy to install ISOGARD HD is easy to cut and handle for quick installation around roofing details such as drains or other penetrations, reducing installation time and labor costs. High compressive strength ISOGARD HD has a compressive strength of over 800 kPa (5 to 6 times that of a normal PIR insulation board). An added measure of protection ISOGARD HD adds structural strength to the entire roofing system and helps to absorb the effects of hail, foot traffic and other potentially damaging impacts. It can also enhance the fire performance of the roofing system Durable When installed correctly, ISOGARD HD will last for the lifetime of the building. Environmentally friendly ISOGARD HD is composed of mold-resistant material that does not support the growth of damage-causing fungi and bacteria. The board is manufactured with a 100% fiberglass, mold and moisture resistant facer and it contains more than 9% of post-consumer and post-industrial recycled combined content. The foam technology uses a HCFC-free blowing agent with a low GWP (Global Warming Potential) and zero ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential). Elevate Isogard HD Cover Board Data Sheet Download

ROCKWOOL RAINSCREEN DUO SLAB RAINSCREEN DUO SLAB is a dual-density insulation specifically developed for use within ventilated cladding systems, as well as sealed systems such as curtain walling. Once installed, the robust outer surface of the slabs, in combination with a factory- applied water repelling agent, acts to resist rain ingress during construction. < Back Next > RAINSCREEN DUO SLAB® Effective non-combustible thermal and acoustic insulation for ventilated façades RAINSCREEN DUO SLAB is a dual-density insulation specifically developed for use within ventilated cladding systems, as well as sealed systems such as curtain walling. Once installed, the robust outer surface of the slabs, in combination with a factory- applied water repelling agent, acts to resist rain ingress during construction. RAINSCREEN DUO SLAB is a dual- density insulation, meaning that the outer layer of each slab is manufactured to a higher density than the remainder of the product. This results in a robust outer surface designed to withstand the rigours imposed on site, and a resilient inner face designed to accommodate any irregularities in the substrate. A water-repelling agent is added to the product during manufacture, which in combination with a robust outer surface and random fibre orientation, prevents water transmission through the insulation layer. As such the slab is well-designed for use in conditions of severe climatic exposure. The product can be easily fitted around brackets and other awkward details, and when tightly butt jointed the fibres of adjacent slabs will knit together to provide a continuous thermal performance – eliminating heat losses that could otherwise be caused by gaps and joints. Its unique dual-density construction also means that RAINSCREEN DUO SLAB requires fewer fixings, making it a cost- effective solution that is quick to install. Applications RAINSCREEN DUO SLAB is designed for use within ventilated cladding systems, as well as sealed systems such as curtain walling. Rockwool - Rainscreen Duo Slab Brochure Download
