When sustainability meets BEMO metal roof systems,quality of life will be there for generations.

The design variety with metal is almost limitless. Aluminum is predominantly used in the construction of a metal roof and standing seam roof as well as for wall cladding. It is the lightest metal and is easily shaped, making it suitable for most construction projects and metal roofing. In addition to aluminium other roofing materials such as copper or steel are often used - zinc is also suitable for the construction of a metal roof. Which metal as roofing material is best suited for your metal roofing depends on several factors. We would be happy to advise you individually on your roof materials and search the best metal roofing sheets for your project.

A metal roof has numerous advantages. Above all, it impresses with its longevity and an easy maintenance of the roofing sheets. A metal roofing can be flexibly and individually adapted to the outer facade of a building and is suitable for large areas, but also for smaller details. Moreover, the metal roofing meets aesthetic expectations. The elements can be used in a variety of ways and even imitate the look of conventional roof tiles.

The lightness of the metal roofing and its roofing sheets is another great advantage. Concrete or clay bricks are significantly heavier than metal. Accordingly, the substructure must carry less weight, so that a metal roof is particularly suitable for the renovation of older buildings, where a heavy roof would affect the statics. In addition, the metal roofing sheets are particularly efficient and can therefore be implemented quickly. It also requires little or no maintenance, and a metal roof rarely retain dirt on its smooth surface.

The advantages at a glance:

• Long lifespan
• Can be used flexibly and individually
• Metal is lightweight material
• Fast assembly of the roofing sheets
• Maintenance-free/low cleaning and care requirements
• Weather resistance/natural protective layer through patina
• UV resistance
• Sustainable and energy efficient

On-roof solutions from BEMO for metal roofs such as photovoltaic elements, fall protection, walkways, steps, and snow guard systems are fastened without penetration using fastening clamps or specially developed rails. These can also be combined to meet any metal roofing requirement. In addition, tested systems, products and roofing sheets are used that can be individually adapted and are durable and sustainable at the same time. Attention is paid to an easy installation of the roof sheets. The roof covering leaves nothing to be desired by architects and promises an efficient construction with metal roofing sheets.

In principle, both solar and photovoltaic systems can be installed on the metal roof. What is decisive, however, is that the substructure is designed for this and offers the necessary load-bearing capacity. BEMO metal roofing can be upgraded with solar or photovoltaic modules directly or later on the roofing sheets. At BEMO, experts for metal roofing sheets will look after you from planning through to installation, so that your metal roof is constructed according to your needs and made of sustainable material such as galvanised steel.

Yes, greening of the metal roof is also possible. A green roof not only sets visual accents. Central advantages are, for example, water retention and protection against excessive heating of the roof surface. On top of that, the drumming effect is reduced in heavy rain, so that the foundation provides additional sound insulation. Normally, the system build-up sedum carpet with low-growing, self-regenerating and drought-resistant plants is applied to our BEMO standing seam profile with integrated bead seam seal without any further sealing measures. The BEMO experts will also advise you on the greening of your roof cladding and how it can be installed on the roofing sheets. 

Thanks to special free-form solutions from BEMO, roof coverings with metal roof sheets can be flexibly adapted to almost any building shape. The patented standing seam system BEMO MONRO® makes it possible to individually shape each individual standing seam sheet (also corrugated metal roof sheets) and thus implement special geometries on the roof with metal. 

The metal roof is also the ideal choice for larger round buildings or conical buildings, because with the roofing sheets any shape can be realized. Metal is therefore more flexible than other building materials and metal roof sheets are particularly characterized by their adaptability. There are almost no limits regarding roofing sheets or especially with corrugated metal roof sheets.

A sustainable metal roofing requires a sub-structure that is neraly completely free of thermal bridges. Thermal bridges can be avoided by using holders made of glass-fibre reinforced plastic on metal roofing. They are free of highly thermally conductive components and are therefore free of thermal bridges. As an alternative, holders made of aluminum can also be used. The advantage of these is that optimal sliding behaviour is achieved, while additional thermal caps on the holder foot ensure thermal decoupling.

A standing seam roof is characterized by a high level of resilience and is durable and particularly weather resistant. If aluminum is used as the material, the roof is very resistant to corrosion and weathering and at the same time easily deformable to be able to adapt it to any shape of the building. Zinc, copper, steel, or stainless steel can also be used as an alternative to aluminium. Another advantage is that the variety of colours, surfaces, and materials is hardly limited, and the roofing sheets offer many design possibilities.
