There are so many reasons to do so:

Mit der PREFA Farbvielfalt sind Ihrer Phantasie keine Grenzen gesetzt.

UNIQUE VARIETY OF COLOURS AND SHAPES

The amazing design possibilities offered by aluminium are truly mind-boggling. This is due not least to our fantastic range of colours which includes over 25 different shades. Aluminium is also full of possibilities in terms of design and shaping. The diverse product range enables virtually all architectural aspirations to be fulfilled, and unique roofing and façade effects to be conjured up. So you see, with PREFA, every building is unique. There are no limits to your imagination or creativity.

PREFA ist leicht und hilft dabei Geld zu sparen

BREAK-PROOF; LIGHTWEIGHT & AFFORDABLE

An aluminium roof does not break and weighs about 1/10 to 1/20 of a tiled roof. With a dead weight of just 2.3 to 2,6 kg/m², an aluminium roof covering is particularly lightweight — and that virtually any roof pitch (exceeding 3°). The advantage: in most cases, older roof structures do not require extra reinforcement. That often saves a good deal of money. Therefore, aluminium is ideal for renovations!

Aluminium bildet eine eigene Oxidschicht, die das Material vor weiterer Korrosion schützt

MADE TO LAST A LIFE TIME

Aluminium reacts with oxygen in the air to form a natural oxide layer. This layer offers outstanding protection from corrosion (including bitumen corrosion) and is therefore rust-proof. If the roof or façade membrane made from aluminium does happen to suffer any damage, it will always regenerate itself. The aluminium supports are also protected by a coil coating. So you and the next generation too, can enjoy your roof and façade for many years.

Jedes PREFA Dach ist extrem zuverlässig auch bei extremen Wetterbedingungen

EXTREMELY STORM-PROOF

Thanks to the concealed fasteners and installation in a half-offset pattern, a PREFA roof can resist even the harshest of weather. In high-risk regions, storm-proofing can be further improved with additional clips. With PREFA, you get all the accessories from one source as a complete system — you can rely on PREFA’s original accessories. Our PREFA roof is reliable on mountain huts too. On boiling hot days and freezing cold nights, it’s not uncommon for maximum and minimum daily temperatures to differ by 50 °C. That’s not a problem for a PREFA roof!

Aluminium lässt sich zu 100 % recyceln und spart Energie bei den Transportkosten

COMPLETELY ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY

From an ecological point of view, aluminium is the ideal choice of material both for new builds and for renovations. There are various reasons for this: ! Aluminium is fully recyclable. ! During recycling, only 5% of the original energy used for production is required. ! PREFA generally uses secondary aluminium (i.e. recycled aluminium). ! As aluminium is so lightweight, energy is saved and CO₂ emissions are reduced during transport to the building site. We say it again: aluminium is extremely durable and break-proof, virtually maintenance-free, recyclable without any loss, unbelievably lightweight, and at the same time particularly attractive. All factors considered, the eco-balance is far better than is the case with traditional roofs.

EXTREMELY LONG-LASTING

Aluminium lasts an eternity — In addition to aluminium’s powerful properties, the concealed fastening technology in a half-offset pattern also offers strong support. So the building shell remains watertight, keeping bad weather outside. We give you this waterproof promise in writing With a 40-year material guarantee. But we do not consider that to be enough. With the P.10 coating, you are choosing a particularly UV-resistant, colourfast and weatherproof surface coating that withstands external influences and stress. With a 40-year colour guarantee.

OUTSTANDING FOLDING CHARACTERISTICS – ALUMINIUM IS FLEXIBLE TO WORK WITH

For us, aluminium is the most flexible material used in construction engineering, not least because the material has excellent folding properties. Thanks to a refined alloy, aluminium is pliable and extremely flexible to work with even in extreme temperatures below freezing point. Installation even in freezing temperatures at high altitudes is mere child’s play — many mountain huts (in some cases located at more than 3,000 metres above sea level) have already been equipped with a PREFA building envelope. Fact: thanks to the flexibility and malleability of aluminium, complicated constructions and special solutions can also be professionally implemented. Even in extreme weather conditions.

“Our customers should be better off with our products than without them.” That’s the vision, the guiding principle and the force that drives Dr. Cornelius Grupp, PREFA’s owner. He has been successfully managing the traditional company in the idyllic Austrian wine-growing region of Traisental since 1981. In the meantime, PREFA can look back on over 70 years of history.

In total, the PREFA group employs around 500 people in 22 countries. Over 4,000 high-quality products are produced exclusively in Austria and Germany. Every year, 3,000 roofers are trained in 9 training centres throughout Europe.

Even though PREFA today is a global corporation which sets standards in roof and façade systems, it is and remains a craftsman’s business. PREFA offers solutions for craftsmen, distributes its high-quality products through craftsmen and works intensively with craftsmen – every day. “It’s craftsmen who know our products best. Their experience, ideas and suggestions for improvement flow directly into our product development,” says Leopold Pasquali, who was appointed to the management board at the end of 2017.
