For more than twenty years, Nophadrain has been fulfilling its philosophy of ‘maximize the open space’ with the development and production of smart utility and green roof systems. In doing so, we play an important role in advising before, during and after implementation.

Fully embedded in our company philosophy is one of the key strengths of our systems: the combination of thin layer compositions with excellent mechanical properties. With this we enable planners and applicators to reduce the height of the composition of trafficable (green) roof systems to the minimum.  Our smart drainage systems combine the various functional layers for a utility roof construction in one product. With our systems we bring green and public space back into the city and its citizens.
