pmf ROOFCRAFT provided the roof covering including 24 Photovoltaic panels for the ‘Coach House’ in Cardiff.

The project won its category in the Best Eco House, Grand Design Awards 2006

The RHEINZINK© Solar PV, Standing Seam System is the optimum combination of ecological solar energy production and architectural roof design using conventional seaming techniques: efficient UNISOLAR © modules are fixed to RHEINZINK © panels using fullsurface and durable adhesive technology.

Without the need for additional fastening components these modules can be installed onto 10° to 70° pitch roofs

Photovoltaic (PV) is the name for direct conversion of sunlight into electrical energy. Without any mechanical wear & tear or emission of any kind, solar cells extract electrical power from the sunlight using semiconductors.

Solar cells are compounded to form solar modules; several modules form a heavy-duty solar generator. The output of this type of PV system is given in kilowatt Peak (Kwp). V systems which are connected with the main power supply system, are directly.

The high quality appearance and the many different processing options ensure that RHEINZINK © is an ideal material for the cladding of roofs and facades.

Excellent durability and a wide range of seam and system techniques mean that the right solution is always available even with complex construction projects.

In addition to the technical and ecological advantages it is also the aesthetic benefits that make RHEINZINK © a special feature of architectural design.
