Roofing Standards and Regulations

No BMI product gets on the roof without passing a comprehensive programme of stringent tests in our world-leading testing, research and validation centre. Our roofing and waterproofing systems are specifically designed in the UK to meet the demand of our weather conditions, climate and industry standards.

Setting the standard

British Standards

Quality

The future of roofing is already taking shape at our Technical Centre in the UK. These state-of-the-art facilities house our passionate and dedicated teams of scientists, designers, and engineers, all working to find new ways to enrich our built environment and improve the quality of life for building occupants.

Environmental

We aim to make positive impacts with our products and innovations, our people, our behaviour, and our operations. It is not just about complying with legislation but doing more. Sustainable construction requires consideration of not only the environmental impacts of construction activity but also the social and economic impacts as well.

Trade Associations

We deliver innovative roofing and waterproofing systems, designed to transform the way people live and work. Providing protection, added value, and peace of mind for architects, roofers, building owners, and industry professionals alike. We work with and are members of construction and roofing industry associations to support the roofing and construction industry and its stakeholders.

Testing & Validation

Validation tests

All elements of our roof systems have to pass the tough validation tests. This is the BMI way to ensure that your complete roof resists all weather conditions as a system.

The best at testing

Our own requirements for performance and quality always exceed the national specifications. We test and validate all products much higher and far beyond national standards. Only when the complete BMI roof system can withstand all our tests will it be validated to cover your roof.

Ongoing development

The testing does not end with the successful development of a product. We take our responsibility seriously in development and also in ongoing production. Even if the products have spent decades on rooftops all over the world in all climates, we get samples to our testing facilities to analyse how they’ve fared and how they could withstand the weather even better.
