Belzona Facts
This 70-year-old roof had experienced deterioration over the years due to atmospheric conditions. The university was considering replacement, however, due to the prestigious work that was done on the lead roofs of the House of Lords in the U.K., Belzona was chosen for this project and extended the life of the lead roof.
