We are the only company in Finland to prefabricate small warm roof elements either as lean-to or gabled roofs. Depending on the type of construction and usage, the roof can be implemented either as a high roof or as a normal flat roof.
Warm roof elements are typically used in detached houses, terraced houses, care facilities, and day-care centres. In most cases, these are one- or two-storey buildings.
Using warm roof elements reduces the construction time significantly and allows the building to be brought to a weatherproof stage and the heating to be turned on after a quick installation process.
This roof is suitable for Finnish fire class P3 buildings from detached houses to terraced houses. The roof can be completed with eaves, small animal nets and fire compartments. The roof can be implemented as a sloped roof or as a gable roof by using a ridge beam.

The gable roof system consists of three element products:
1) CEILING ELEMENT YP
The ceiling element can be used to equip the building with a warm wall head. Support elements and a cold roof can be installed on top of it, so that the roof of the building can be finished quickly.

2) SUPPORT ELEMENT TK
Support elements are installed below the cold roof in the shape of the building’s roof. Support elements are supported on top of a concrete frame or ceiling elements. The support element can also be prefabricated as a compartmented version.

Large warm roof elements are typically used in the construction of large production facilities, shops and halls. Using a warm roof element significantly shortens the construction time, as the building can be brought to a weatherproof and heat-retaining stage very quickly.
We design the warm roof element and related structures and required details in accordance with the specifications of each client’s project. The maximum length of our prefabricated large roof elements is 25 meters.
A warm large roof is suitable for the construction of large roof surfaces for industrial and commercial buildings, for example. The large element, with a maximum size of 60m2, speeds up the installation and allows the building to be sheltered from the weather and warmed up quickly.

We customise prefabricated cold roof elements to suit the specific requirements of each project. Typical applications for cold roof elements include multi-storey buildings, schools, and large care facilities.
Cold roof elements eliminate the need for a separate weather guard, as the installation of wall and roof elements can be phased so that the finished structures are not exposed to rain before the roof elements are installed. Cold roof elements are suitable for buildings with a load-bearing ceiling.
Integrating cold roof elements in a construction project means that there is no need to separately protect structures from the weather, which saves costs and significantly shortens the construction time. Using cold roof elements shortens the construction time typically by several weeks or even months.
The roof is installed on top of a load-bearing concrete frame or ceiling elements so that it is supported by the support elements.
