The world-leading trade fair BAU in Munich provided a platform for professionals and decision-makers in the construction industry from January 13 to 17, 2025. Zambelli took the opportunity to showcase its versatile solutions for building envelopes and roof drainage to a broad international audience from trade, craftsmanship, and industry, while fostering dialogue with long-standing customers and new contacts.
At its newly designed exhibition stand, Zambelli presented a wide selection of proven systems and exciting innovations. The exhibited products from the roof drainage and building envelope sectors emphasized Zambelli's commitment to combining technical innovation with practical solutions.
Function and Design in Roof Drainage
The spotlight of the presentation was the revamped Robust steel system, featuring an optimized surface and improved details for enhanced durability and flexibility. The color system will be available later this year under the new name Zambelli COLORDUR. A highlight was the modernized hopper system, offered in various design variants: a square model with a sleek and seamless appearance and a cubic model with a minimalist, modern design and versatile applications.
Significant attention was also drawn to the new HSF Ballast Tank, a 2-in-1 system for the secure mounting and stable ballasting of PV modules on flat roofs. A sample setup at the booth demonstrated its ease of use.
Functional Lightweight Metal Components for Building Envelopes
There was much to discover in the RIB-ROOF segment as well. Zambelli Siding Profiles enable customized facade designs in nearly any shape. The panels, available in various widths, are specifically designed as lightweight systems for ventilated facades and include trim and closure profiles.
New this year is the sliding clip, ensuring silent and seamless dilation of facade elements.
Another highlight was the narrow, roll-formed verge flashing. This innovation allows for efficient production of lateral roof edges as verge capping directly integrated with roofing sheets. Complementing this was the patented roller clip, which enables optimal dilation movements with roller bearings.
The Thermo-Z spacer profile impressed with staggered elongated holes, providing superior thermal performance without the need for thermal separating strips between the roof membrane and the supporting structure.
Additionally, Zambelli unveiled a new roof renovation concept: the RIB-ROOF universal clip rail allows for non-penetrative attachment of profile sheets, creating a rainproof roof. This system can be enhanced with a solar tube and photovoltaic panels, avoiding leaks, extending lifespan, and reducing costs and installation time. Managing Director Wolfgang Völkl described the concept as "an eco-friendly, cost-efficient, and sustainable solution for roof modernization and renewable energy integration."
10th International Partner Meeting
A standout event in the BAU 2025 supporting program was the 10th International Partner Meeting of the Roof Drainage division. The gathering brought together Zambelli's international network of trade partners for a relaxed exchange of ideas. In addition to short presentations by Zambelli executives and engaging discussions, highlights included the unique Motorworld venue and the vibrant charm of Munich.
