Trending Now: Integrated Solar Metal Roofs Revolutionise UK Roofing
A significant and rapidly growing trend is reshaping the UK roofing industry: integrated metal solar roofing, also known as building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV). Roofit.Solar, one of the most established names in solar roofing, is leading this innovation, offering roofers advanced roofing solutions to help make their customers’ homes sustainable yet stylish.

BIPV – The Future of Roofing

While rooftop solar has long been used to generate clean energy, building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) advances this approach by embedding solar power directly into the roofing material itself. Rather than adding panels on top of an existing roof structure, BIPV systems replace traditional roofing elements with solar-active surfaces—making the roof both the protective covering and the power generator.

For roofers, this means working with a product that preserves roof integrity without the complications of conventional panel systems. There’s no drilling, no brackets, and no risk of compromising the waterproof layer. The result is a clean, flush installation that avoids gaps where moss or debris can collect. BIPV offers a more durable and streamlined alternative to bolt-on solar, while using the same familiar roofing tools and methods professionals already rely on.

Standing Seam Metal Roof + PV

At its core, Roofit.Solar is a metal roof—installed just like any traditional standing seam metal roof. That means roofers don’t need to learn a new system or invest in special tools. It uses the same profiles, methods, and skillset already familiar across the industry. What makes it different is what’s built into the panels themselves: advanced solar technology that generates 190W of electricity per m2, the highest performance currently available in purpose-built BIPV solutions. The solar layer is integrated within the structure, turning a high-performance metal roof into a clean energy system—without changing the way it’s installed.

Built to Withstand the Harshest Conditions

As global weather patterns become increasingly extreme—with harsher storms, heavier snowfall, and more frequent hailstorms—the need for robust roofing solutions has never been greater. Roofit.Solar’s BIPV standing seam metal roofs rise to this challenge, having been engineered specifically for superior durability and performance during severe conditions. These roofs maintain structural integrity under extreme weather events, offering peace of mind to homeowners and professionals alike.

Certified for Extreme Performance

Roofit.Solar roofs are certified to perform in some of the toughest weather conditions and, with unpredictable weather increasingly becoming the norm in the UK, durability is non-negotiable. They withstand hurricane-force winds up to 152 miles per hour, achieve the highest waterproofing rating (Class R6), meet Class A fire safety standards, resist hail up to 40mm in size (HW4), and carry a snow load rating of up to 4 metres. For roofers, this means fewer callbacks and greater confidence in the roof's ability to hold up over time—no matter what the weather brings.

 

Award-Winning Sustainable Design

Roofit.Solar’s innovative approach has received international recognition, including the Red Dot Award for Sustainable Design in 2025, "Best of the Best" in 2024, and the iF Design Award. These accolades highlight the company's dedication to sustainable and thoughtful design.

Global Experience and Reliability

Roofit.Solar has successfully installed over 2,500 solar roofs across more than 25 countries. This extensive experience underscores the reliability and proven performance of the company’s roofing systems, supporting its reputation in the roofing community.
