Unidek/The Product
Unidek Condor SIPS
The Unidek Condor Structural Insulated Roof Panel System not only provides the MMC solution to roof insulation but offers the added benefit of enabling the cost-effective creation of third storeys or rooms in the roof. The roof panel core is manufactured from EPS, sandwiched between two timber skins to form a highly engineered composite element. The combination of a highly developed stress skin technique with high load-bearing capacity and a comparatively low weight allows for free spans of + 6 meters unsupported.
The system allows efficient, safe and fast installation, whilst providing a weather tight environment for following trades and for the structure below. The integral insulation in the roof panels also means that the panels will give the required thermal resistance to ensure an efficient roof element and can improve on traditional methods of providing thermal insulation significantly.
Unidek Condor SIPS roofing panels also offer a significant contribution to the overall SAP or SBEM rating as the reduction in carbon emissions is achieved by the extremely low U-values achievable for a pitched roof -typically 0.16W/m2K for a 244mm thick panel, although even lower values are achievable.
Unidek Condor SIPS significantly improve sound reduction and air leakage resistances over traditional roofing materials.
The impact sound from rain and hail is also reduced due to the composite action and design of the roof panels. Unidek Condor Daylight Panels can be supplied ready to receive a rooflight. These panels are trimmed around the opening and have been structurally designed to spread the loads across the full element.
The Green Building Guide gives a rating of 'A+' for the roofing panels with reclaimed slates, clay tiles and concrete interlocking tiles.
