Award-Winning Innovation
Vent-A-Roof® has been honoured with the 2024 Australian Good Design Award for Hardware and Building, recognised for its innovative design and outstanding functionality in shed ventilation.
Chris Cuschieri, Sales Manager at Vent-A-Roof®, shared why the product stood out: "An important consideration of Good Design 2024 was whether or not the product had the potential to improve the quality of life for people and planet. With long term, real world energy efficiency benefits, as well as a solutions based look at managing condensation, the jury commented that Vent-A-Roof was a “well-resolved, integrated, and subtle design that considers the product lifecycle and the positive impact of good design on passive building environments.'"
Winning this prestigious award has brought increased recognition to Vent-A-Roof® within the shed industry. Cuschieri explained:
"It has brought a legitimacy to shed ventilation and to Vent-A-Roof as a whole. Clients that may not even have considered ventilating their sheds have looked at the benefit of using the product and to date, it has been our best year yet."

As more clients transform their sheds into liveable spaces and work environments, the need for effective ventilation has grown. Chris noted that people are:
"Far more conscious of the impact that ventilation can have both from a liveability and energy efficiency point of view. Vent-A-Roof continues to highlight ventilation as a powerful solution to decreasing the heat in summer and managing condensation in the winter."
