Our first steps!
Our company was established in 1995, with big dreams and plans to establish a sustainable and green culture. Initially, our main profile was wholesale and foreign trade, but soon architectural and civil engineering activities, as well as technical consulting, became part of our core activities. Today, these areas form the backbone of our activities, contributing to shaping architecture in an innovative and sustainable manner.
Our company’s central vision is the international promotion of conscious roofs and a sustainable, green culture. This concept represents a way of linking environmental awareness and architectural design. Conscious roofing includes architectural solutions and technologies aimed at promoting environmental sustainability and the application of green building principles. We are proud to be known and recognized players in the field of green roofs and safety technology not only in the Hungarian but also in the international market.

Sustainable development
The company gives special emphasis to serving the needs of society without compromising the living conditions of future generations. Our credo for sustainable development is that…
- ”No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it” (quoted by Einstein)
- look for the solution “outside” the system
- everything is connected, so think in terms of correlations rather than priorities.
- regulations are meant to preserve the future in a good condition.
- work started in the past, creating the future, needs to be consolidated in the present.
- the best problem-solving is prevention.
- not knowing every in- and output of the problem does not mean you should not tackle it.
- good decisions can be taken by those who will be concerned by them.
Responsibility
The guideline and main motive of the company is to ensure and sustain the liveability of the built environment. Half of the R+D budget is allocated to finding technological solutions promoting the extensive applicability of green roofs and providing long-term options to improve and make liveable the urban ecosystem. The other half of the R+D budget goes to the development of products protecting human life. We place an extremely high value on the safety of people working at height, on roofs; the sales of our products providing individual and collective protection make up half of our turnover.
Warranty
Product and service quality is guaranteed by the quality management system, the quality manager of the company, and by regular internal and external audits. High-quality product development lets our products outperform compared to the international requirements. This is confirmed by the protocols and certificates of testing agencies. For more details on the manufacturer’s guarantee of the products, ask our salespersons.
Vision and brand name
In addition to green roofs, a very emphasized area has developed in our company: our safety technology product family protecting those working at height: the DiaSafe® system family, which provides anti-fall and collective protection systems, or combinations thereof.

Planning
You will need professional planners with adequate experience to draw up application/installation plans for individual and collective protection systems. The plan must take into account the properties of the building and the site, and the relevant requirements. It is commendable to give priority to the use/plan of fall-arrest systems. The responsible engineer must always approve any modification that may occur during implementation.
Plan in case personal protective equipment is used
- the exact position of anchor posts and other system elements
- the system elements to be built in
- the maximum length of the personal protective equipment
- the maximum number of permitted users
Key information for individual protective equipment
- Project data (country, city, street etc.)
- Roof category based on use intensity
- Roof plan view including the height data of the various surfaces by level (e.g. roof level, terrace, ground-floor, attica, superstructure specifics)
- Facade and sectional drawings inc. height data
- Place and means of exit to the rooftop (door, ladder etc.)
- Roof’s inclination
- Place of superstructures or elements to be installed later (e.g. solar collector)
- Roof build-up structure
- Ballast material (e.g. growth medium, gravel, cladding elements)
- Drawings in dwg format (to accelerate the planning process); if that is not available, pdf is acceptable
Key information for collective protective equipment
- Roof plan view drawing incl. indication of the place of the safety bar(s)
- Facade and sectional drawings including height data (Drawings in dwg format (to accelerate the design process); if that is not available, pdf is acceptable)
- Roof’s inclination (for the DiaSafe® Guard system it is up to 5°)
- Place of superstructures or elements to be installed later (solar panels, air conditioner’s external unit etc.)
- Skylight protection (to be protected by the DiaSafe® Guard)
