Environmental Design

We have the opportunity to make our built environments more energy efficient, attractive, adaptable, environmentally sensitive and productive. We can make our buildings work for us, consuming and generating smart energy, and becoming real investments in our future.

Photovoltaic and Solar Modules

Mounting photovoltaic and solar modules onto a rooftop increases value in a sustainable manner. Whether it is a new building, roof renovation or upgrading an older structure, RIB-ROOF metal roofing systems allow you to choose from a wide variety of possibilities. Elevated or modules that are parallel to the roof, film laminate is directly installed on the roof surface or mounted on plates. The solar-laminated option blends in decently and is ideal for curved and rounded roof forms. We would be happy to show you how to get the most out of your roof.

Original solar-modules with integrated mounting angles

The irregular financial support program changes in the course of the Renewable Energies Act (EEG) make the solar market feel unsure.
Therefore it is good that with the original solar support brackets you have a lasting reliability regarding guarantees, technical function with dimensional accuracy and permanent roof conductivity, optics and statics with the estimated capture-forces.
As further development now we can offer you an improved economic solar support bracket with a length of 80 mm!

Green roof for RIB-ROOF

The trend towards roofs used as green areas remains unbroken. In addition to the important functions of roofs, such as protection and comfort, the environmental aspect has become increasingly important in recent years. For this purpose, we offer the optimum solution with the innovative green roof system, suitable for the RIB-ROOF metal roofing systems Evolution and Speed 500.

Green roof complete system: an innovation of two strong partners

RIB-ROOF metal roofing systems and KNAUFINSULATION, one of the leading manufacturers of insulation materials, developed together the green roof system. This system is suitable for flat and sloping roofs in residential and commercial construction.
The green roof has a low build-up height and at the same time a low surface weight. In the dry state, the weight is on average 15-20 kg / sqm and in the fully saturated state it is approx. 80 kg / sqm. The water storage capacity is up to 60 l / sqm depending on the system.
