Marley SolarTile®, together with the new and innovative Roof Defence product, can both be specified as component solutions within a fully integrated roof system and help play a significant role in enabling housebuilders to satisfy new carbon reduction responsibilities under Part L of the Building Regulations, as well as enhance protection against the risk of fire spread between roof spaces.

Stuart Nicholson, roof systems director at Marley, says: “We are committed to working with housebuilders so they can specify roofing solutions that meet the needs of their customers and the regulatory landscape they’re operating in.

“That’s why we’re delighted that the value of future-proofed roofs provided by the Marley full roof system have been recognised in this way. 

“Roof Defence and Marley SolarTile can help housebuilders protect the safety of homeowners and meet the sustainability demands of Part L and onwards to the Future Homes Standard, so it’s great that the judging panel have acknowledged the benefits both products bring to a roof system. 

“Marley’s single supply offering ensures the housebuilding sector can access a fully integrated roofing solution that has sustainability, safety, and performance at its heart.”

The judging panel at the Housebuilder Product Awards commented: “The judges favoured entries which satisfied the key criteria of the category including offering solutions to the housebuilder and cost and time saving, as well as, importantly, the need to meet sustainability and zero carbon challenges facing the industry.

“The judges were impressed by the approach of the best and winning product in this category to put sustainability at the heart of the product range.”
