With rising concerns over urban flooding and rising water levels, architecture is evolving towards amphibious buildings—structures designed to float or remain unaffected by fluctuating water levels. Roofing systems, too, need to adapt to these dynamic environments. Scaffs India introduces Shingles Designed for Amphibious Buildings and Flood-Resilient Structures, engineered to deliver watertight integrity, buoyancy, and adaptive durability.
What Are Amphibious & Flood-Resilient Shingles?
These shingles are crafted from lightweight, closed-cell polymer composites that are non-absorbent, buoyant, and impact-resistant, ensuring that the roof remains watertight even when subjected to submersion or high-humidity conditions. Designed to be compatible with floating foundations, these shingles integrate with both fixed and amphibious structures, delivering functional resilience without sacrificing architectural appeal.
They’re available in profiles that match Premium Designer Shingles and robust Borja EXTREM Tiles, making them ideal for flood-prone zones.
Key Features & Benefits of Flood-Resilient Shingles
1. Watertight, Non-Absorbent Material Composition
The closed-cell structure prevents water absorption, eliminating issues like swelling, rotting, or weight gain even during prolonged submersion.
2. Impact & Debris Resistance During Floods
Engineered to withstand floating debris impact, these shingles prevent punctures, cracks, and water ingress during extreme weather conditions.
3. Buoyant Design for Amphibious Architecture
For floating buildings, the lightweight shingles reduce the overall structure’s draft, enhancing buoyancy and structural balance.
4. Mold & Algae Resistant Coatings
Special anti-fungal and anti-algae treatments prevent microbial growth, ensuring the roof maintains its appearance and hygiene in humid environments.
Ideal Applications: From Flood-Zone Villas to Floating Eco-Resorts
Perfect for:
Villas and homes located in backwater regions or flood-prone urban zones
Floating cottages and eco-resorts in Kerala’s waterways
Emergency shelters and community halls designed for seasonal flooding adaptation
