The integration of the specialised RENOLIT ALKORPLAN Bright membrane ensured high solar reflectance and sustainability for the Belgian Pavilion, reflecting RENOLIT’s commitment to innovation and sustainability.
RENOLIT ALKORPLAN roofing products is thrilled to have played a pivotal role in the construction of the Belgian Pavilion for Expo 2025 Osaka. The successful collaboration with the Belgian Government through BelExpo resulted in a structure that stood as a symbol of sustainability and innovation on the international stage.
The choice of RENOLIT ALKORPLAN Bright membrane guaranteed high-performance waterproofing, offering exceptional solar reflectance that transformed the roof into an active cool roof. This solution optimised the energy efficiency of the pavilion and drastically reduced the heat island effect. Such an approach demonstrates how innovative waterproofing can concretely contribute to creating more sustainable and comfortable urban buildings.
The selection of this high-performance material was fundamentally driven by the pavilion’s focus on human regeneration and the evocative slogan “Saving Lives”. These themes directly mirror the core values of RENOLIT ALKORPLAN roofing products and the Group’s broader mission expressed through the “Protect what matters” campaign. A claim that represents a commitment to responsible and conscious choices, emphasising social and environmental sustainability by safeguarding valuable resources like energy and water. This share vision ensured that the final execution remained entirely consistent with the humanistic approach of the building.
