Historic building turns green with Kemper System K


emper System has helped to refurbish the metal roof of an historic London building, manufacturing a uniquely coloured waterproofing system. Located at 77 Chancery Lane, the property is owned by The Honourable Society of Lincoln’s Inn – an organisation with an 11- acre estate in London comprising historic buildings,


commercial space, residential


properties, a law library and chapel. Property and construction consultancy, Ingleton Wood, specified Kemperol V210M as part of the wider refurbishment of 77 Chancery Lane, which is being transformed into Grade A office space. To emulate the appearance of the existing copper roof, the cold-applied liquid was specially manufactured in copper green. The


Kemperol V210M was installed by Ridgewell Flat Roofing over an area spanning 350 sqm. As the same liquid already featured on the roof, it was overlaid with the V210M to refresh the copper green colour. The V210M was also used to waterproof new roof areas and where plant had been removed, providing a consistent covering.


To ensure a consistent depth and coverage, the V210M was applied until the fleece was no longer visible which indicated it was fully saturated. Once cured, the liquid resin formed a seamless and elastomeric membrane. Victoria Ramwell from Kemper System


said: “The green colour is the natural shade of the patina that forms on the copper surface of a roof over time. By adjusting our manufacturing process with different pigments, we were able to

create the exact RAL 6034 colour code specified for this project. The V210M has provided a new and robust waterproofing solution with a very traditional appearance which will ensure this historic building remains watertight for decades. The ease of application also meant that it could be quickly and effectively installed around the multiple seams of the metal roof.”
