The sustainable connecting element for the biobased roof edge profile.

This biobased connector has been developed to join biobased 60/80 roof edge profiles into a clean, continuous edge finish for the green roof. The connector ensures a stable, precise joint between the profiles, without visible interruptions, and contributes to a high-quality, durable roof edge solution.

Like the roof edge profile itself, the connector is made from biobased HDPE with a biobased content of 98%. The material is dimensionally stable, durable and resistant to weathering and temperature fluctuations. As a result, the joint remains reliable throughout the entire service life of the green roof system.

An integral part of a circular roof edge system

The connector has been designed as an integral part of a circular roof edge system. Because all components are biobased, the result is a consistent whole that helps to reduce the environmental impact of green roofs. Despite its low weight, the connector has a demonstrably positive environmental impact, with a carbon footprint of –1.97 kg CO₂-eq per kilogram of material and a technical service life of approximately 50 years.

Application is simple and practical. The connector is used to join biobased 60/80 roof edge profiles and ensures a neat, stable connection. It is installed by bonding with a suitable adhesive sealant; mechanical fixing is not required. This reduces installation time and leaves the roof construction intact.

Ideally suited to circular construction projects

Technically reliable, easy to install

With its combination of technical reliability, long service life and positive environmental impact, this biobased connector for roof edge profiles is ideally suited to circular construction projects, nature-inclusive building and sustainable area development.

Quick and easy installation

Delivery and installation are quick and easy. The connector is supplied per piece and ensures a clean, continuous roof edge. Mechanical fixing is not required. This reduces installation time and leaves the roof construction intact.

I’M GREEN certified

The connector is fully recyclable and meets the criteria of the I’M Green label. The product is supplied packaging-free, which avoids unnecessary packaging material and further reduces the environmental impact of the logistics chain. As there is no individual packaging, the I’M Green label is not displayed on the product or its packaging. The certification does fully apply, however: the biobased HDPE used is demonstrably made from renewable raw materials. This choice underlines our focus on genuine sustainability rather than visible labelling.

Frequently asked questions

If it’s biobased, won’t it rot away in the ground?2026-10-27T20:53:04+01:00

No. We use “drop-in” bioplastics. This means that the chemical structure (polyethylene) is exactly the same as that of the fossil-based version. It is not biodegradable, but it is bio-produced. Its service life of 50 to 100 years remains fully guaranteed.

What is a circular roof edge profile?2026-10-27T20:48:51+01:00

A circular roof edge profile is a roof edge solution that is fully reusable and designed for multiple life cycles. New Circle develops biobased roof edge profiles and separation profiles from 100% biobased HDPE, made from renewable raw materials. (Production may contain some residual material, which is why we guarantee a minimum of 98% biobased HDPE.) The profiles are dimensionally stable, impact-resistant, UV-resistant and resistant to the weather and temperature fluctuations. With a technical service life of around 50 years, a carbon footprint of -1.97 kg CO₂-eq per kilogram of material and a 10-year guarantee, they offer a demonstrably sustainable alternative to traditional aluminium roof edge profiles.

How long do New Circle’s roofing products last?2026-10-27T20:48:51+01:00

New Circle’s biobased roof edge profiles, separation profiles and connectors have a technical service life of around 50 years. They are dimensionally stable, UV-resistant and resistant to the weather and temperature fluctuations. New Circle offers a 10-year guarantee on its roofing products. This makes them technically comparable to conventional alternatives, but with a demonstrably lower carbon footprint and fully recyclable at the end of their service life.

Are New Circle’s products ready for specification and tendering?2026-10-27T20:49:33+01:00

Yes, New Circle’s products are ready for specification and tendering. New Circle’s biobased roof edge profiles, separation profiles and connectors are fully documented and can be included straight away in specifications and tenders. They are certified with the I’m Green Bio-Based label and meet all relevant technical building requirements. New Circle supplies complete specification texts and product documentation, including environmental performance data and installation instructions.

How circular are New Circle’s products really?2026-10-27T20:39:10+01:00

Our products are based on scientifically grounded material choices and circular principles. Biobased raw materials, a low environmental impact and demountability make them demonstrably circular. See the product pages for detailed specifications.
