RadiciGroup to Showcase Sustainable Nonwoven Solutions for the Roofing Sector

For the first time, RadiciGroup is taking part in Klimahouse, the international trade fair dedicated to energy efficiency and sustainable building, being held in Bolzano from January 29 to February 1, 2025 (Hall CD, Stand D22/04). At the event, the group will present its high-performance, sustainable nonwoven solutions for the roofing sector.

RadiciGroup has been operating in nonwoven fabric production for over 30 years and offers semi-finished products that contribute to the quality and efficiency of modern construction, ensuring heat insulation, waterproofing and durability. The group is taking part in Klimahouse with its Nonwovens Business Line, showcasing three different nonwoven ranges: spunbonds from the Dylar family and meltblowns from the Radimelt family, as well as the spunbonds made using recycled polypropylene that belong to the Respunsible family. These solutions are available in different configurations and a wide range of colors to meet every customer requirement.

“By taking part in Klimahouse, we have the chance to present our specific range of nonwoven fabrics developed for the roofing sector, at a major event for customers and prospects in the industry. Our 30-year experience combined with our technical know-how allows us to step forward as an outstanding partner in improving the quality and reliability of membranes for the coverings of buildings. Thanks to our in-house R&D structure, equipped with state-of-the-art tools, we develop innovative solutions with a low environmental impact that can help make a difference in the world of construction, also thanks to our ability to create tailored, highly customized solutions,” states Stefano Frione, head of RadiciGroup’s Nonwovens Business.

RadiciGroup nonwoven fabrics are ideal for applications such as breathable membranes, vapor barrier membranes, heat insulation, adhesive backing, flexible sealing, bituminous membranes, and roof and façade insulation.

Dylar is the flagship brand for the roofing sector: a wide range of high-performance spunbond nonwoven fabrics with high mechanical strength and tear resistance and, where required, excellent for printing and bonding processes. Radimelt is another strategic brand for the group, with its range of highly breathable meltblown products.

RadiciGroup has made sustainability a fundamental pillar of its strategy, offering innovative solutions that respect the environment. This is why the group has expanded its range of spunbond nonwoven fabrics with Respunsible, containing up to 100% recycled polypropylene and certified by SCS Global Services. This sustainable solution allows for a reduction of more than 50% in CO₂ emissions, measured according to the LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) methodology.

RadiciGroup has also joined the ISCC PLUS (International Sustainability and Carbon Certification) scheme, which documents traceability throughout the supply chain and verifies that certified companies adhere to high environmental and social standards.
