Eco-friendly solutions are in high demand, driven by the growing construction sector and consumer demand. Additionally, pricing trends can significantly impact the demand for raw materials in the roofing industry, says Dharmendra Dhari, Skipper, Blooms India.
Can you tell us about the different energy-efficient roofing and cladding options for customers?
Numerous energy-efficient and nonhazardous roofing and cladding options are available worldwide, such as solar panels, cool roofs, green roofs, metal roofs, and insulated cladding. Our recommendation for roofing and cladding depends on various factors, including the type of building (residential, commercial, or industrial), the location (hills, seaside, or plain), and the customer’s budget. We suggest options like multilayer uPVC sheets, PUF panels, HPL, zinc cladding, clay, mineral, or stone-coated metal roofs, and solar roofs and façades, which are both fashionable and profitable.
Can you explain how the growing construction and infrastructure sectors drive the increasing demand for eco-friendly roofing and cladding solutions?
The demand for ecologically friendly roofing and cladding solutions is rising due to the growth of construction and infrastructure sectors. Sustainability is a major concern for building owners, developers and governments as they look to reduce energy consumption and minimize the environmental impact of structures. This has resulted in an increase in demand for energy-efficient roofing and cladding options. Governments are providing incentives and regulations to encourage the use of environmentally friendly building materials and systems. Additionally, consumers are increasingly environmentally conscious and are seeking ecologically sustainable products and services, including eco-friendly roofing and cladding solutions. This trend covers all building components, including environmentally friendly options for cladding and roofing.
What are the latest advancements and technologies in roofing and cladding design?
Recent advancements and technological breakthroughs in the roofing and cladding industry include smart roofs that use sensors and advanced technology to monitor environmental conditions and optimize energy usage, as well as green roofs that offer insulation, rainwater collection, and help reduce urban heat islands. Solar roofing has also progressed with lightweight panels that can be integrated into various roofing materials, and 3D printing technology has enabled the production of complex designs that are lightweight, strong, and affordable. Biodegradable roofing materials, such as shingles and green roof substrates, that use sustainable, natural materials are also available, and prefabricated cladding panels are gaining popularity due to their ease of installation, affordability, and customizability. These innovations have transformed the roofing and cladding industry, making it more eco-friendly, efficient, and sustainable.
Which green materials and solutions are gaining traction on roofing and cladding construction sites?
In addition to the options above, a few more green materials and solutions are gaining traction on roofing and cladding construction sites. One such material is reclaimed or salvaged wood, which can be repurposed into the unique, ecofriendly cladding. Another is vegetated cladding, which utilises climbing plants and vines to create a living facade that can reduce heat absorption and provide other environmental benefits. Finally, there is also a growing interest in using recycled or repurposed metal for roofing and cladding, as it is durable, longlasting, and environmentally friendly.
How can pricing trends affect the demand for raw materials in the roofing industry?
Pricing trends significantly impact the demand for raw materials in the roofing industry. Fluctuations in oil prices, trade disputes, supply chain disruptions, environmental regulations, and consumer preferences are some of the factors that can influence pricing trends. If raw material prices rise too much, building owners and contractors may seek out more affordable alternatives, which could decrease demand for certain roofing materials.
