DOW Roofmate TG and Proctor Roofshield by Dynamic Composite Technologies - sustainable roofing 
The Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) is a world leader in the development of elite sport and is widely acknowledged in Australia and internationally as a best practice model for elite athlete development. The Cox Group of Architects in Canberra was given a strict brief to produce a design that satisfied the stringent thermal performance and sustainability requirements now required of new buildings as well as creating the right environment for the athletes and support personnel to be able to train and achieve the results envisaged by the commissioning of such an innovative new facility. To satisfy the design brief the Cox Group used a combination of DOW Roofmate TG (tongue and groove) building insulation and Proctor Roofshield Breather Membrane to create a roof design that met the needs of the AIS. Due to the superior thermal performance and moisture resistance, DOW Roofmate TG was the perfect choice for use in the roof line as it is able to handle the high humidity developed by a Swimming pool enclosure. The problem of condensation forming in the roof structure was solved by the use of Proctor Roofshield Breather Membrane. The use of Roofshield meant that any moisture vapour that formed would be able to vent through the Roofshield in one direction but be held out by the membrane in the form of bulk liquid. This means that the roof internals and bulk insulation will be kept dry and performing at its maximum.
