The lower carbon status of Kerabit Nature® roofing is achieved, among other things, by replacing part of the traditional raw materials with renewable and recycled raw materials. All Kerabit Nature® products are manufactured at our Lohja factory and carry the Key Flag Symbol.
Reduce the carbon footprint of buildings
Carbon emissions from roofing manufacturing can account for up to a quarter of the emissions from materials used in construction. Therefore, you can have a significant effect on the low-carbon status of the building by choosing low-emission roofing. The carbon emissions (GWP Total) during the manufacture of Kerabit Nature® products are approximately 59 % lower than for corresponding basic products (common European value EWA).
Durable and recyclable bitumen coating
With the exception of environmental impact, the technical properties of Kerabit Nature® products are equal to those of basic products of the same type. We pay particular attention to the waterproofing properties of all our bitumen roofing products.
In addition, Kerabit Nature® products have a long service life, as do all Kerabit bitumen roofing products. At the end of their service life, Kerabit Nature® products can be recycled e.g.to asphalt manufacturing.
