How do you protect against heat?
Sun protection is provided by the large number of air-containing cells between each synthetic palm leaf. This particular feature of Palmex tropical roofs offers a very convincing result in terms of protection against heat.
What about rain noise?
Palmex tropical roofs are particularly resistant to the sound of rain. The base polymer allows water to glide over the artificial palm leaves with speed. The properties of the synthetic sheets and their quantity allow water to drain off quickly.
How long does a Palmex palm leaf roof last?
When a Palmex roof is installed under the conditions recommended by the manufacturer, its texture and composition are guaranteed for 20 years, and its color is guaranteed for 15 years. An average discoloration of synthetic palm leaves of 1% per year is included in the warranty. The premature factory aging process ensures that artificial palm leaves retain their color over the years.

What fire coverage is available?
Developed by Palmex, the flame-retardant material we use in the manufacture of our synthetic palm sheets meets both Canadian and American VO standards. It therefore complies with current regulations for the construction of roofs and public buildings.
How do leaf roofs react to stronger winds?
The flexibility of synthetic fin sheets also becomes a highly effective safety factor in windy conditions. Artificial palm leaves will let the pressure of extreme wind through, sparing the exotic roof from the devastating “delta” effect well known in roof construction.
Do the plastic sheets on tropical roofs give off a smell?
No chemical or organic foreign matter is included in the properties of the polymer used to manufacture Palmex tropical roofs. The polymer in synthetic palm leaves is absolutely neutral, making it ideal for use in water, milk and petrol jerry cans, kayaks, children’s slides and much more.
What kind of maintenance do Palmex tropical roofs require?
Palmex synthetic palm roofs are virtually maintenance-free! Dirt and tree twigs will disappear with the first rain or with the flick of a hose. What’s more, the high-quality polymer used in the manufacture of artificial exotic leaves offers exceptional protection against insects and other destructive organisms.
