Flat Roof Insulation System with Exposed Rafters
The flat roof insulation system fully complies with the most stringent of standards – from basic building regulations, right through to Passivhaus standards.
The system offers excellent thermal performance, humidity regulation, high levels of protection from summertime overheating, acoustic insulation and vastly superior sustainability credentials. This low embodied carbon solution is the first choice for both specifiers and homeowners. Woodfibre roofs are the simple, yet sensible system for zero carbon homes of the future.
The system is suitable for most external finishing options, including; sedum, metal, timber or similar decking
The build up consists of sustainable insulation over the rafters, airtightness and wind tightness layers, the ceiling rafters are left exposed internally.
