Copper Ridge Systems SPR PENROSE
Copper Ridge Systems SPR PENROSE utilise pure copper to create self-cleaning roof solutions. The natural oxidation process releases copper sulphate, preventing moss and algae growth. Ideal for both new builds and re-roofing projects, these systems integrate seamlessly with existing ridge tiles.
Roof Moss Prevention
Our copper-based solutions provide permanent moss prevention through natural chemical processes. Copper sulphate released by rainfall inhibits microbial growth, maintaining roof aesthetics and structural integrity without chemical treatments or manual cleaning.
Copper Roof Flashings
High-grade copper flashings offer durable waterproofing at roof junctions. The antimicrobial properties prevent organic growth while maintaining structural longevity. Available in custom angles for seamless integration with various roof designs.
Under Ridge Strips
Water-capture under ridge strips enhance copper sulphate distribution. These strips fit beneath standard ridge caps, providing comprehensive coverage. Available in 450mm units for easy installation without special tools.
DIY Roof Kits
