Every square metre of a building must not only be justified but also used to its fullest extent.
Over the past few years, the expectations for roofs have transitioned from merely providing protection against the elements to providing a way to meet regulatory requirements and help the residents cut their energy bills.
Two recently completed projects featuring our Complete Roof System demonstrate how Marley SolarTile® can help you and your customers achieve their energy efficiency targets in both new-build and re-roofing projects.
Stoneywood Care Home
At Stoneywood Care Home, three custom-designed buildings were developed around a forward-looking approach to both care and environmental performance.
Each building features a duo-pitch roof incorporating Marley’s full roof system, with SolarTile® forming part of the project’s response to its sustainability objectives.
The result demonstrates how renewable technology can be incorporated into a prominent architectural element without allowing it to dominate the design.
In Holsworthy, Devon, Westward Housing has taken a different route to better building performance.
As part of a wider social housing decarbonisation programme, 35 homes were upgraded using a package of measures including new roofs, thermal insulation and in-roof solar PV.
Marley SolarTile® was specified alongside Ludlow concrete roof tiles, helping transform existing properties into warmer and more energy-efficient homes while retaining a coherent pitched roof appearance.
At Marley, our role extends beyond supplying fully tested roofing solutions. We work across the supply chain to help architects, contractors and other project partners move from specification through to installation with greater confidence.
That means providing technical expertise during the design process, guidance on product selection and system compatibility, and practical support that helps reduce complexity as the project progresses.
Our complete pitched roofing system brings together roof coverings, battens, accessories and integrated solar PV, supported by people who understand how those elements need to work together on a real project.
For architects, it means access to a coordinated solution and the expertise behind it, helping to support smoother project delivery from the drawing board to the finished roof.
Whether you are designing a new development or improving the performance of an existing building, Marley is there to help turn the roof specification into a successful built outcome.
