Ruukki® Hyygge is an innovative and modular complete roof solution that combines technically advanced roofing sheets and accessories into a visually appealing end-result. The Polish Patent Office has granted a patent for this simple, elegant roof solution that perfectly matches consumer trends for modern housing.
Ruukki introduced Hyygge in Poland in 2018, since when it has been one of our most popular roof types in Central Eastern Europe, the Baltics and Ukraine.
“This is a stellar example of fruitful collaboration between Ruukki experts in Finland, Sweden and Poland. By combining our expertise from different markets, we were able to come up with a unique solution that supports our complete roof strategy, is visually appealing, safe to install and completely modular,” says Tomasz Golczýnski, Director Products & Services, Roofing at Ruukki.
“Having Ruukki Hyygge in our portfolio has a big impact on the business. On the one hand, Hyygge shows Ruukki’s innovation capability and on the other hand, allows us to boost sales by selling an outstanding new model of roof with many dedicated roofing accessories,” says Grzegorz Pucek, Business Director, CEE area
Unique complete solution
Ruukki Hyygge consists of flat longitudinal roofing sheets that have both horizontal click locks and vertical sliding locks. The design enables the roof to be safely installed from top to bottom. The end-result is visually appealing, with straight lines and no visible screws. Thanks to the special centering holes, the customer can choose from three different pattern options for the roof with just one solution.
The modular product includes a set of flashings, which secures proper ventilation of the roof slopes and improves the final look of the house. The flashings have been designed especially for Ruukki Hyygge. Additionally, Ruukki has designed and packaged all other related accessories for this purpose to create a complete end-to-end experience.
“We have worked together with our suppliers to take into account all steps in the installation process in our design. Because of the two dimension design of the roofing sheet, also the manufacturing process required special attention and was designed together with the production line supplier,” Tomasz continues.
“This product is really difficult to copy and not easy to compare with other products available on the market. This gives us and our customers a huge sales advantage. Furthermore, the look and esthetics mean that we can offer it in many interesting investment projects, where architecture is an important criterion,” Grzegorz added.
Great team of experts behind the innovation
Ruukki Hyygge is the result of long-term international cooperation within Ruukki. The product development started back in 2016, and many experts have contributed to the end-result.
"This is a true team effort. I am proud of our people and the collaboration across Ruukki countries to create this technically advanced solution. We will continue developing the product to ensure that it is the roof of choice of even more homes in the future," Tomasz concludes.
