SCHELTEMA’S SPACER SYSTEM:
A REVOLUTION IN ROOF REPLACEMENT
OVER ROOFING APPLICATION
Scheltema’s solution involves installing new roof cover over existing roof cover. Spacer
brackets are manufactured to length according to the insulation requirements and are then
pre-installed whilst the roof remains fully watertight. Once all the spacer brackets are
installed and aligned, the fixing bars are secured and roof sheeting is installed.
ENERGY EFFICIENT
The space between the existing and new roof introduces the potential to completely
re-insulate the building. Bulk insulation installed in this space offers significant energy
savings as the insulation does not compress, thereby allowing it to perform to specification
and comply with SANS 10400 XA requirements.
SAVES COSTS
This application is of particular interest to property owners and property managers as it
halves the time of a traditional roof replacement and prevents disruption and potential
consequential damage to property. In all, this means reduced risk and no loss of
production, trading and rental.
WORLD CLASS SYSTEM
The Scheltema Spacer System was recently selected by the project engineers of the
Tygervalley Shopping Centre Roof Replacement project. During the replacement of
the entire 50,000m² roof and skylights, the shopping centre remained fully operational.
By maximising the thermal properties of uncompressed bulk insulation the centre has
significantly reduced its energy requirements.
Scheltema’s system comes with an independent engineer’s sign off at key milestones
during the installation process.
