Hambleside Danelaw is proud to announce that two of its products are on the shortlist for the ‘Most Innovative Product’ at the Pitched Roofing Awards 2024.
Innovation has always been a key ethos for Hambleside Danelaw, from the production of the original valley trough in 1997, to more recent developments.
This prestigious award is granted to products which show high levels of creativity and innovation in fields such as manufacturing materials, production process, or installation method, and in being shortlisted, Hambleside Danelaw evidences their commitment to invention.
The award was only introduced last year, so to have two of Hambleside Danelaw’s products on the list of the five shortlisted is an exceptional achievement.
The two Hambleside Danelaw products on the shortlist are: InVerg®, the patented interlocking dry verge system for plain tiles, and SwiftRidg® – the GRP alternative to heavy metal roll-top ridges.
The InVerg® was released in 2020 and has now been installed on over 1500 properties across the UK. Compatible with most plain tiles, both single and double lap, InVerg® features a patented design which offers improved weather and wind resistance (GB Patent No. 2586153). Contractors have unanimously commented on the improved ease and speed of installing InVerg® compared to traditional mortar bedded plain tile types.
SwiftRidg®, launched at the start of this year, comprises of a unique omega-shaped GRP profile and a fixing kit. The patent pending GRP system can withstand wind speeds of over 110mph while offering an alternative to roll-top ridges made from metals such as lead, zinc and tin (Patent Application No. 2308115.1).
Hambleside Danelaw also manufacture the SwiftRidg®+, a kit which includes a corrugated roll. When installed underneath the roll-top profile, the addition of the roll results in ventilation at ridge level.
The SwiftRidg® presents an incredible opportunity for roofers: bridging the skills gap associated with lead, removing the risks associated with metal roll-top systems (which, like lead, have scrap value), as well as being a viable option for water harvesting systems unlike metals which have contaminated water run-off.
Hambleside Danelaw will be attending the awards, held in November in Manchester.
