No. Emarit is manufactured by coating enamel-quality special steel plates with porcelain enamel, so that it is much more endurable than pre-painted steel plates.
Is Emarit cheaper than the other roofing materials?
Emarit is available in various different models which are sold at different prices, so that it presents alternative prices to choose from.
Furthermore, its lightness ensures it to be economical in terms of the roof construction, and its non-diminishing and non-maintenance properties ensure it to be economical in terms of transportation and overall costs.
Does a roof covered with Emarit need maintenance?
Roofs covered with Emarit do not need maintenance.
What makes Emarit such a strong and special roofing material?
Emarit is installed by means bolts and a lock system, so that it is highly endurable. Each unit of Emarit is fixed twice on the roof construction by means of bolts, and on the units right below and above it by means of a special lock system. Units comprising one square meter of Emarit covering are fixed to the roof and to each other at 21 points, so that it can be safely used in windy areas and climates.
Can Emarit be used in sites which are exposed to such high deformation elements as an ocean?
Thanks to its porcelain coating, Emarit is highly resisted against acids. It should be especially selected for sites located within highly salty atmospheric elements such as an ocean. It will not undergo deformation when used in sites.
Does Emarit’s color fade?
Emarit’s color never fades, its color and texture always remain intact.
Does moss grow on Emarit?
Thanks to its antibacterial ingredients, Emarit is a thoroughly clean roofing material which does not allow moss to grow on it.
How should a roof covered with Emarit be cleaned?
Emarit cleans itself after each fall of rain, so that it does not need any cleaning operation. It also does not need to be re-painted.
Is a a roof covered with Emarit exposed to the risk of lightning stroke?
Thanks to its porcelain coating, Emarit is a material not conducting electricity. It does not behave in any different way from the other roofing materials.
Does Emarit cause the roof to get warmer?
Thanks to its surface properties, Emarit reflects the heat and absorbs lesser heat. Its reflection rate varies depending on its color, because light colors reflect much more heat. Thus roofs covered with Emarit considerably lower the energy costs.
Is it possible to walk on a roof covered with Emarit?
You are recommended not to walk on a roof covered with any material unless it is necessary to do so. However, Emarit is much stronger than the other metal roofing materials thanks to its thickness of 0.70. It is possible to walk on it, provided that intense traffic must be avoided.
Does snow accumulate on a roof covered with Emarit?

Is Emarit flammable?
Emarit is an absolutely non-flammable material.
How much does a roof covered with Emarit weigh?
Emarit weighs 1/5 of the earth-based roofing materials. A roof covered with Emarit weighs approximately 8 kg per m². This is a considerable advantage in terms of transportation and roof construction costs.
Does Emarit emit a noise when it is raining?
Thanks to its form and dimensions, Emarit does not emit as much noise as single-piece metal coverings. Furthermore, roofs built in accordance with the current heat insulation standards are also sound-proof, therefore roofs covered with Emarit are not different from the traditional roofs in terms of noise.
Is Emarit harmful against the environment?
Emarit is manufactured by coating a metal surface with a glass-based material. It does not produce a harmful material during manufacturing or after being applied. It is a natural and recyclable product.
