Prism offers enhanced insulation and airtightness as well as thermal performance as low as 0.09W/m2k, which enables builders to comply with building regulations regarding Fabric Energy Efficiency and the need to achieve higher performance levels for Part L 2013. This revolutionary product also eradicates significant risks caused by erection of scaffolding, manual handling at height and falling blockwork gables. The new system provides better speed of construction to improve the efficiency of any build programme.

Oliver Novakovic, Technical and Innovation Director for Barratt Homes, commented: “Through the Barratt Innovation Assessment process we came across the new Prism Smartroof system which we recognised offered benefits around speed of construction and health and safety. We are now working closely with the Keystone Group to pilot the system and integrate it into our homes. We have found working with the Keystone Group team to be very positive with a can do attitude which enables us to think outside the box and deliver benefits across our business.”

Peter Nordon, Smartroof’s Managing Director commented on the achievement: “Our innovative engineers have worked closely with key customers to develop our most thermally efficient roof to date. With enhanced safety and cost saving benefits we can’t wait to bring this product to the market, so we are naturally delighted that our Prism system has been Highly Commended in the ‘Best Brand New Product’ category”.
