A new roof installed at Hattersley Clinic has won a sustainable technology award.
The roof, installed by Red Tree Building Contractors, Sanderoof Roofing Contractors and NHS Property Services, scooped the Eco-Active Roofing Award at the 2019 Intelligent Membrane Association (IMA) Awards.
The annual awards recognise and reward the expertise, skills and professionalism of IMA members.
The Hattersley Clinic roof utilises a smart sustainable construction material called Noxite which reverses nitrous oxide (NOx) particle air pollution.
The roof uses the sun’s rays to produce a reaction that turns the harmful nitrous oxides into harmless nitrates.
The result is a depolluting effect where the pollutant is neutralised from the environment - and is permanent.
Construction was carried out over ten months and in an impressive feat of project management and construction expertise, the building remained open throughout.
