About Protan expand_more
These technically sound and sustainable roof coverings are developed for extreme Nordic climates, making exposed roofs easy to look after and maintain.
"Exposed roofs" is a collective term for all roofs with a visible and weather-exposed surface.
Protan supplies strong and durable roof coverings that offer architects and builders the safety and flexibility to use our roofing systems for different purposes and aesthetic solutions that require that little bit extra.
Protan has 50 years experience in producing high-quality roof coverings with a long documented lifetime. These technically sound and sustainable roof coverings, are developed for extreme Nordic climates, making exposed roofs easy to look after and maintain.
Protan’s roofing solutions can be used on all types of substrates, whether new-builds or refurbishment projects. The roof coverings are quickly installed, and all joints are welded with hot air. Protan’s thermoplastic membranes have a low carbon footprint, are recyclable and, since electrical welding equipment is used, are installed with zero emissions.
Architects and builders who use Protan roof coverings enjoy great aesthetic and visual flexibility without sacrificing durability, strength and environmental requirements.
Protan Vacuum Roof is a unique system that does not require fasteners on the roof surface. The force of the wind generates negative pressure which sucks the membrane firmly onto the roof structure. This is particularly well suited to the refurbishment of large roof surfaces.
The Protan Cool Roof solution uses a white roof covering, with a documented high sun reflectance value or SRI (Solar Reflectance Index), to reduce the need for cooling the building internally.
Protan Solar Roof facilitates the installation of solar cells or panels on roofs using Protan roof coverings. The choice of roof covering depends on what type of solar panels will be used.
Protan BlueProof is a prize-nominated solution for roofs, both new-builds and refurbishment projects. Water is gradually drained and allowed into the storm drain network, avoiding overloading resulting in floods.
Protan’s quality solutions for exposed roofs are long-lasting, robust in all types of climates, technically sound and sustainable. Protan’s roofing solutions can be used on all types of substrates, whether new-builds or refurbishment projects. The roof coverings are quickly installed, and all joints are welded with hot air.
Green roofs are becoming more and more popular, especially in densely populated urban areas, where it’s important to use available roof space. Green areas and roof terraces increase value both for property developers and those who live in or use the buildings.
Extreme weather is the new normal. This is why Protan has developed a blue roof solution that reduces the risk of flood damage.
Protan has solid and durable systems that protect verandah and balcony floors against moisture, mould, rot and corrosion.
