A roof that protects critical data centre technology from water damage

In data centres and industry, roof water management is a critical part of the operational reliability of the whole building. We design and manufacture solutions that meet the needs of demanding projects. Our wide product range and over 60 years of experience in flat roof drainage help you find solutions that work, whether you need to manage extensive volumes of water or require watertight penetrations for roof technical equipment. Our products, developed for Nordic conditions, help protect the valuable technology in data centres from water damage and support the long service life of the building.

We are a member of the Finnish Data Center Association (FDCA).

Data centre roof water drainage and penetrations

External roof drainage for data centres

Risk management and operational reliability are emphasised in data centre drainage solutions. One way to reduce the risks associated with internal roof drainage systems is to route stormwater directly outside the building. Our scupper drain, developed for external drainage of data centres, is designed especially for large roof surfaces from which extensive volumes of water must be removed efficiently.

The structure of the scupper enables water to flow efficiently off the roof, and the hopper helps control the water flow and guide the water away from the roof through a downpipe in a controlled manner. Water does not pool on the roof or flood, even in heavy rain. Take a closer look at the technical details of the scupper drain!

Kattotekniikan vesitiiviit läpiviennit

Datakeskusten katoilla on runsaasti tekniikkaa, jonka läpiviennit on toteutettava vesitiiviisti ja rakenteiden kuormitukset huomioiden. Kaapeleiden lisäksi katon läpi tuodaan muun muassa teollisuusputkia, mikä asettaa läpivienneille erilaisia teknisiä vaatimuksia.

Peltitarvikkeen joutsenkaulat ja muut räätälöitävät läpivientiratkaisut suunnitellaan datakeskusten tarpeiden mukaan. Paksu putki ja suuri laippa tukevat läpiviennin kestävyyttä myös suuria kuormia vaativissa kohteissa. Autamme valitsemaan sopivat ratkaisut, jotta kattotekniikka voidaan tuoda rakenteiden läpi luotettavasti niin, että rakenteiden vesitiiveys säilyy.
