"Radmat are proud to support the annual opportunity for the roofing industry to showcase the exemplary and interesting projects being protected by our materials and skills.

Company Profile

Radmat Building Products is an independent British company providing a range of waterproofing and insulation systems that will provide a lifetime’s protection for your building’s structure.

Demand for terraces, balconies and podiums has never been greater, but with the thickness limitation of traditional products there is a difficulty for a designer to insulate above a habitable space against a backdrop of increasing thermal requirements.  This, together with the desire to maximise the glass façade and cater for a level threshold has created a near impossible task.  ProTherm Quantum insulation, the only BBA Certified VIP panel, has been developed to offer a significant reduction in height without the loss of thermal performance, facilitating a revolution in the construction build and facilitating architects creating more elegance in the design of their external floor space.

Where is it best used?

On podiums, terraces, balconies and roofs where there is a requirement for thermal performance and any insulated area and where depth is critical to overall construction.  Typically, this will be a new build application but ProTherm Quantum can also be used in refurbishment projects.

What can it help deliver?

  • Building Regulation Part L compliance: exceptional performance
  • Building Regulation Part M compliance: level threshold to external balcony
  • NHBC Chapter 7.1 compliance: 75mm threshold clearance 

Our high-performance waterproofing materials, including PermaQuik Hot Melt Monolithic waterproofing, Esha Reinforced Bitumen Membranes, ParaFlex liquid applied coating and EshaPlan single ply membranes are backed by comprehensive guarantees and technical support.

Supplying only through Radmat Approved Contractors we provide comprehensive design and technical support to the entire construction team, aiding delivery of the right solution at the right price. 

Whether new build or refurbishment our focus is on providing the most suitable waterproofing solution, taking into consideration requirements such as budget, design, aesthetics, thermal performance, drainage requirements, wind uplift resistance, safety, programme, build ability and ultimate client use.

Our long-standing relationships with some of the UK’s leading clients, specifiers, surveyors, main contractors and specialist roofing contractors bear testimony to our levels of commitment to doing the job right first time, an attitude that has benefitted many prestigious projects across the United Kingdom.

UK Roofing Awards 2020 adapt to ongoing Covid-19 restrictions

by x Tennant | Jan 18, 2021

Following the announcement of further national lockdowns across the UK, and no lifting of restrictions on large public gatherings expected any time soon, NFRC has taken the difficult decision to cancel the postponed 2020 UK Roofing Awards live event, previously scheduled for 28th May 2021.

However, shortlisted projects for the 2020 Awards will still undergo the scrutiny of the usual judging process, and winners for all categories will be announced to the NFRC membership, trade press and on social media in February 2021. Subject to restrictions, trophies will be presented personally or dispatched by courier.

Shortlisted projects will be shared on social media over the coming weeks prior to being judged, using the hashtags #RA2020 and #RoofingAwards2020.

NFRC would like to thank the following sponsors of the 2020 Awards for being so understanding about the changes:

  • Radmat Building Products
  • SIG Roofing
  • BMI
  • CUPA PIZARRAS
  • QA National Warranties
  • EJOT
  • Cromar Building Products
  • FAKRO
  • Marley
  • Sika
  • Chandlers Roofing Supplies

Commenting on the announcement, Chief Executive of NFRC, James Talman said:

It is with a heavy heart that we have taken the decision to cancel the 2020 UK Roofing Awards live event. With lockdown restrictions on large public gatherings expected to last well into the first half of 2021, it looks very unlikely that the 2020 Awards would have been able to take place as planned in May. However, we felt strongly that the judging of the Awards should still go ahead to provide much-deserved recognition for the extremely high-calibre projects that have been submitted. We hope to ensure that winners get as much exposure as possible and that they are also recognised at the 2021 Awards

He added

“I encourage everyone to keep an eye on the Roofing Awards social media channels over the coming weeks and see the incredible projects that are up for an award, as well as for the big announcement of the winners in February. Whilst we can’t celebrate in person, I am sure we can all make some virtual noise to celebrate these fantastic projects."
