TB-HORTIROOF system replaces the "Knikdek"
Our TB-Hortiroof, a fully insulated roof system for the Venlo greenhouse construction, is our advanced development of the widely used "Knikdek" in the horticulture sector.
The TB-Hortiroof roof system includes custom-made sandwich panels and the in-house developed and patented aluminum TB-Guttersystem and ridge profile.
This makes the TB-Hortiroof a fully integrated and insulated roof system that can be directly placed on the gutters of the Venlo substructure. The result is a sturdy, durable, waterproof, and condensation-free insulated sandwich roof.
The development of the TB-Hortiroof also took the installation method into account. This is highly appreciated by the mechanics during the installation.
For the specific features of the unique aluminum TB-Guttersystem, we refer to the corresponding chapter.
Weatherproof finish
The most important requirement for the TB-Hortiroof, is the fact that it is weatherproof. T-Bouwsystemen has developed a specially, patented, TB-Guttersystem with a PVC thermal break. All seams of the roof are sealed with a special sealant. The thermal break in the TB-Guttersystem prevents a thermal bridge, which makes condensation a thing of the past. By placing the flashings on the ridge, the entire roof is completed weatherproof.
new construction or refurbishing
The TB-Hortiroof offers a light but solid roof and can be mounted on any Venlo substructure construction. This can be included as part of a new construction, but can also be mounted on an existing substructure. Together with the assembly of insulated façade panels, you can then relatively easily change part of your construction into an insulated production area or storage or office spaces.
OUR tB-Hortiroof supplied as one package
As mentioned earlier, we offer our TB-Hortiroof as a complete package. In addition to custom-cut sandwich panels, this package includes all necessary aluminum profiles and the essential polymer core. The construction manual provides the mechanics with detailed instructions for effortless assembly, including an overview of the required installation materials. All these components ensure an efficient and smooth installation of a waterproof and condensation-free roof.
COATINGS AND COLORS
Basically you have the same options in coatings and colours as with the façade panels. However, we often recommend choosing a lighter color with a strong and colorfast Ultra-X-70-75μm or the HPS Ultra 200μm coating. As a result, the panels reflect the solar radiation more effectively and your roof is well protected against the various weather influences.
