The strength of durability through high-performance materials
In the Québec region, commercial and industrial businesses seek construction solutions capable of withstanding the climate, optimizing costs, and protecting their investments. At Permodome, we rely on research and development innovations developed by our specialized partners, including IPG, Intertape Polymer Group, to deliver structures that stand out for their durability and performance. By selecting materials based on the industry’s most advanced technological developments, we are able to offer robust installations adapted to Québec’s climate and the specific needs of commercial and industrial sectors.
NOVASHIELD™ membrane: Engineered to last
The membrane plays a crucial role in the performance of a modular building or temporary structure. This is why Permodome uses the NOVASHIELD™ membrane, manufactured by the Canadian company Intertape Polymer Group (IPG). Designed specifically for steel-frame structures, this membrane stands out for its exceptional strength, stability, and ability to withstand Québec’s harsh climate conditions.
Responsible materials inspired by Cradle to Cradle principles
The research and development innovations we integrate follow sustainability principles inspired by the Cradle to Cradle Certified™ Products Program. This international framework promotes healthier and more responsible product design. As a result, it encourages safer materials, better circularity, and a smaller environmental footprint.
The NOVASHIELD™ membrane is also designed with these principles in mind. By removing harmful compounds and favoring reusable or recyclable materials, IPG and Permodome support a circular economy. Consequently, each product is built to last, be reused, or be transformed at end of life. For our clients, this ultimately means greener construction solutions that meet rising sustainability expectations.
Improved energy performance driven by research
IPG’s environmental commitments directly influence the quality of the materials we use. The company follows a continuous improvement plan to reduce energy intensity, lower CO₂ emissions, and increase renewable energy use.
This vision aligns with major construction trends and supports more efficient modular buildings and flexible structures. For businesses in Québec, this means installations with better heat-loss protection and stronger resistance to harsh weather. As a result, they benefit from long-term operational performance. R&D innovations therefore improve energy efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and enhance overall durability.
Responsible management of water, waste, and processes
The membranes used by Permodome undergo strict environmental audits to ensure responsible water and waste management. IPG’s facilities also work to reduce their impact on soil and ecosystems. In addition, they divert most non-hazardous materials from landfills through advanced recycling.
By choosing membranes produced under these standards, Permodome offers clients structures that respect sustainability principles. Each project therefore relies on low-impact materials and processes that encourage more responsible environmental management.
Built for Québec’s climate: Robust and reliable installations
Companies in the Québec region are familiar with the challenges of the climate: extreme temperature variations, strong winds, constant humidity, heavy snow loads, and repeated freeze-thaw cycles. The R&D innovations integrated into our membranes and structural components allow us to deliver installations that maintain their stability and performance year after year.
A committed partner for sustainable, cost-effective solutions
By integrating advanced technologies, high-quality materials, and a clear vision centered on sustainability, Permodome positions itself as a key partner for businesses seeking flexible, durable, and efficient construction solutions.
If you’re looking for a more durable building, a structure tailored to your operations, or a long-term storage solution, our team can support you in assessing your needs and planning your project.
