Restore the Water Cycle, Rethink the Roof
Reinventing roofing to combat climate change and water scarcity
This is WATERROOFS - where architecture and ecology converge. Our patented roof tiles are designed to reintegrate buildings into the natural water cycle, reversing the impact of traditional dry roofs that have silently expanded desertification across 3 million km² of lively land.
About WaterRoofs
• Our Vision
To restore harmony between the built environment and the planet by transforming every roof into a contributor to the natural water cycle.
• Our Mission
To replace conventional dry roofs with evaporative, climate-positive systems that mimic forest-like evapotranspiration, helping reduce heat, enhances vegetation and biodiversity, and mitigate water stress.
Climate Impact:
Dry roofs today cover 3 million km² of land, contributing to an annual evaporation deficit of 2,190 km³—Thus combined with human freshwater consumption, is equivalent to 10% of global continental atmospheric water runoff, this accelerates climate imbalance and intensifies droughts
Evaporation Like a Forest
Returning up to 750L of water per m² per year to the atmosphere. Each tile returns vital moisture to the air, mimicking the natural evapotranspiration of woodland ecosystems.
Rainfall Starts on the Roof
Enhancing local precipitation cycles. By restoring evaporation, WATERROOFS helps seed clouds and rebalance local weather patterns.
Cooler Cities, Naturally
Reducing urban heat island effects. Our roofs lower surface temperatures by releasing water vapor, softening heat extremes in dense urban areas.
Turning Roofs into Oases
Creating atmospheric oases in arid zones. In dry regions, our system creates microclimates that support biodiversity and atmospheric moisture.
Ethical Standards
Transparency
We are open about our materials, processes, and environmental data. Our system is independently verifiable and replicable.
Ethics
Our goal is climate integrity—every product is engineered to benefit ecosystems and future generations.
Sustainability
WATERROOFS tiles are produced using recycled PET or other recycling based materials and/or bio sourced products-ensuring minimal impact on natural resources
