For over 40 years, MOY Materials (MOY) has been providing secure, solid cover waterproofing systems for building envelopes.
In the company’s latest development, it has exclusively partnered with AquaTrace to launch a 24/7 live monitoring solution of a roof’s performance.
‘Intelligent Roofing Solutions’, powered by AquaTrace (MOYAT), detects any break in the roof’s performance and feeds back the information to customers in real time, via the AquaTrace smart app to either a laptop or a mobile device.
Cathal Quinn, commercial director of MOY Materials, said: “We are excited to be delivering a new solution and adding a next level monitoring service for a roof’s performance.
“For us as roof waterproofing providers, we provide systems that are fully waterproof and secure. This intelligent roofing smart monitoring solution allows the constant monitoring of a roof’s performance, live and direct. As a result, we are able to dramatically reduce the risk of water ingress into a building across any stage of the building project, from construction to post completion throughout the buildings lifecycle, with millimetre accuracy before the water enters the building.
“Importantly, this allows immediate repair before the ingress has tracked into the building, and repairs can therefore be achieved without any need to interrupt the work function of the building. This is an exciting development for the industry and one MOY is proud to be integrated with from the outset.”
Gerard Shortt, co-founder of AquaTrace, added: “With technology ever changing the performance of our buildings, here at AquaTrace we have seen the need to develop an easy to use, reliable and economical way of bringing intelligent roofs to buildings. Thanks to the team at MOY, driven by Pat Farrell and Norman Stenhouse, we have finalised the development of our exciting technology through to its integration into MOY’S current roofing designs.
“Having MOY as a partner, defines the final steps in our development and our first steps into the market. We share the company’s appetite for innovation and the relentless goal to bring reliable and next generation roofing solutions to the smart buildings of the future.
“Intelligent Roofing Solutions will be commonplace in the coming years, and with the partnership we have forged together, we can be market leaders in bringing that change. Undoubtedly, roofing has taken a giant leap forward.”
