Profile Ridge

Profile Ridge has been designed to give the appearance of a traditional bedded ridge, but with all the benefits that a modern dry ridge system provides, such as secure mechanical fixing & appropriate ventilation. The Profile Ridge system incorporates ventilation strips to support the ridges and provides high level ventilation.

To complete the system and to enhance aesthetics, profile fillers are supplied for profiled tile types. The fillers click into the ventilation strips and both are marked to ensure correct orientation.

KoraFlex flashing system

Lead has been the standard flashing material on roofs for 100's of years. However, cost and environmental concerns mean that lead is becoming increasingly unattractive. KoraFlex is the ideal alternative flashing material. KoraFlex is an aluminium roll, fully coated with a butyl adhesive backing for superior adhesion. It is ideal for weather-proofing roof junctions such as side and top abutments around chimneys and dormers etc. KoraFlex is much lighter and more flexible than lead, making it easier to handle and install.

The backing film can be removed in sections as required, making positioning on the roof easy. The adhesive backing remains workable for an hour but then provides a strong adhesion to the roof to resist wind uplift. Because KoraFlex is made from aluminium there is no risk to the environment from any chemical leaching onto the roof.
