Ramco now offers new age roofing sheets, Greencor which is a 100% asbestos free cement corrugated sheet manufactured using European technology and with specially developed PVA fibers. These roofing sheets have low thermal conductivity which results in lower conductance of heat or cold. This results in a better living environment, insulated from climatic extremes. Unlike metal roofing sheets, they do not corrode and are unaffected by lightning and electrical power ensuring a safe environment for the occupants. Greencor creates zero noise pollution and ensures a calm and quiet interior.
