ALLIANZ INFOGRAPHIC 2012 NEW PRODUCTS BUILDING Exciting and innovative building products are constantly being developed as new challenges are identified and fresh solutions found. With comfort and reduced carbon footprint in mind. here are our favourite innovations that could be integrated into your home. ROOF VATION RIGHT ELEVA Corrugated iron goes high tech The sun can cool power generating roof your attic! Solar heat ventilation technology like the SolarWhiz can be used to Photovoltaic Solar Tiles can be Colorbond steel with Thermatech used instead of regular tiles and technology on a roof can reflect can generate electrical and thermal energy. extract warm air from your roof space - and it's powered by a solar panel". more of the sun's heat in summer and less in winter".
