As rising sea levels and unpredictable monsoons increasingly threaten coastal communities, amphibious architecture is emerging as a smart solution for flood-prone regions. One of the critical components of these structures is flood-resilient roofing shingles, engineered to adapt to fluctuating water levels while ensuring structural safety and durability.
At Scaffs India, we offer roofing solutions that align with Kerala’s unique coastal challenges, combining innovation, aesthetics, and long-term durability.
What Are Amphibious Building Shingles?
Shingles designed for amphibious buildings are specially engineered to withstand:
Frequent Submersion in Water
High Humidity and Saline Air Exposure
Dynamic Structural Movements (as the building floats or adjusts to water levels)
Manufactured with hydrophobic polymers, reinforced fiberglass cores, and salt-resistant coatings, these shingles ensure roofing systems remain intact even when water rises.
