In keeping with our pioneering efforts in research at our R&D Centre at Pondicherry, LOTUS RMP Roofing Sheets was developed by us in the year 1985 to meet the need for cost effective and high endurance roofing.
Lotus RMP Sheets are fire resistant, generally conforming to BS 476:Part 3 : 1975 and IS 1734 : Part III: 1973. The sheets can replace GI and AC sheets to a large extent for use particularly in Chemical and Food Processing Industries due to their excellent resistance to almost all organic solvents, for eg., Acid, Alkali and Salts.
The sheets are also ideal for use in hilly regions, very cold places as well as hot and humid zones due to their inherent property of absorbing ultra violet light and converting it into thermal energy, and functioning as heat isolation agents. Thus the place is kept warmer in winter and cooler in summer.
The product has been extensively tested at various recognised laboratories in India and abroad including Structural Engineering Research Centre (CSIR), Central Building Research Institute (CBRI), Central Institute of Plastics Engineering and Technology (CIPET), Electrical Inspectorate of the Government of Kerala etc., and certified for all types of roofing applications in India.
