Thank you for Subscribing to Construction Business Review Weekly Brief
Roofing technologies took a giant leap following the COVID-19 pandemic and the resultant drive for environmental sustainability. From cool roofing that reduces heat transfer to buildings to solar shingles that harness solar energy to generate power for homes, the roofing industry is making great strides following advancements in eco-friendly construction technologies. In the wake of these trends, the global roofing market, valued at $108.03 billion prior to the pandemic, is expected to reach $165.79 billion by 2029.
Among the leading trends that are behind this market growth, solar shingles deserve special mention. Made of slim photovoltaic (PV) sheets, these roofing tiles use sunlight to generate clean power while remaining durable. They also offer a more attractive aesthetic to homes than their more traditional bulky solar panels.
To put the spotlight on many of such key developments in the roofing industry, this edition of Construction Business Review features thought leadership articles from May Winfield, Global Director of Commercial, Legal, and Digital Risks, Buro Happold, Jason Ponosh, Construction Director - APAC, Clough, and Davide Mangini, Senior Vice President, Permasteelisa Group North America, who shed light on the role of digital in construction, building information modelling (BIM) technology, and roof paver tie-down systems.
In this edition of Construction Business Review magazine, we also bring to you the story of some of the top roofing companies and roofing materials providers in Europe/UK. The list comprises Koch Roofing with its innovative roofing, constructing small and large photovoltaic systems in private and open spaces for a sustainable future. The list also includes Exall Roofing with their all-encompassing range of roofing services.
Through the following pages, we aim to shine a light on the innovative trends and latest developments in the roofing industry. We would like to know your thoughts.
