An experienced partner
…you can rely on
Derbigum/Imperbel was founded in 1932. Over a time span of more than 80 years, the company has grown to become a well-respected global group, specialised in waterproofing and energy management.

Your best investment
45 years ready for you
Studies by independent agencies show that Derbigum roofing has a proven lifespan of 30 years and an expected lifespan of more than 35 and 40 years. At this moment there are roofs of 45 years that still prove their functionality every day.
Other waterproofing solutions have a lifespan of 10 to 20 years: these need to be replaced and a reinvestment for the renewal of your roof is necessary. What’s more, these are less resistant and result in higher maintenance and repair costs. Choosing Derbigum means choosing the most profitable long-term investment.
