Project Type: Luxury Resort Roofing
Location: Munnar, Kerala
Product Used: KHW Synthetic Palm Thatch
Year of Completion: 2024
Project Overview
Blanket Resort, nestled amidst the misty hills of Munnar, Kerala, is known for its serene location and luxurious hospitality experience. Surrounded by dense greenery, waterfalls, and mountain views, the resort wanted its architecture to echo the beauty of nature while maintaining modern functionality and durability.
To achieve this vision, the client partnered with KHW Solutions Pvt. Ltd., India’s leading supplier of premium synthetic thatch roofing. The goal was to create a natural-looking thatched roofing system that complements the resort’s tropical charm and provides long-lasting protection against Kerala’s challenging weather conditions.
Client Requirement / Challenge
The resort management aimed to upgrade their roofing with a solution that delivered the warmth of traditional thatch but without its drawbacks.
Key requirements included:
• A natural-looking roof that enhances the resort’s eco-luxury aesthetic.
• Weather resistance, particularly against Munnar’s heavy rainfall and humidity.
• Zero maintenance, avoiding the recurring upkeep costs of real thatch.
• Fire resistance and UV protection for long-term safety and durability.
• A sustainable material aligned with the resort’s eco-friendly philosophy.
Traditional palm thatch, though beautiful, posed issues like decay, pest infestation, and frequent replacement. Hence, a premium synthetic alternative became the ideal solution.
Our Solution
KHW Solutions proposed using KHW Synthetic Palm Thatch, an innovative and eco-friendly roofing product engineered to replicate the beauty of real palm leaves while offering unmatched longevity.
The chosen thatch material was a natural beige tone, perfectly harmonizing with the resort’s earthy palette and lush surroundings. Each thatch panel was designed to mimic organic textures and patterns, giving the roof an authentic tropical look from every angle.
Our in-house design and execution team developed a custom roofing layout that blended functionality with aesthetics. Attention was given to detailing—especially at corners, ridges, and overhangs—to achieve both visual appeal and technical precision.
Execution
The project demanded precision due to the resort’s multi-level architecture and hilly terrain. Despite these challenges, KHW’s experienced installation team completed the entire project on schedule.
Every roof section was carefully layered to ensure perfect water flow and wind resistance. The installation process was clean, efficient, and environmentally safe, requiring no toxic chemicals or special maintenance measures.
The result was a flawless thatched finish that delivered both visual warmth and long-term performance, even under Kerala’s tropical climate.
Outcome
The transformation of Blanket Resort’s roofing stands as a perfect balance between aesthetic charm and technical excellence.
Key results achieved:
• A stunning tropical roof design that seamlessly blends with the natural landscape.
• Zero maintenance requirement — no mold, pests, or fading.
• High resistance to rain, humidity, and sunlight, making it ideal for Kerala’s environment.
• Extended lifespan of 20+ years compared to natural thatch.
• A sustainable roofing solution aligned with the resort’s green hospitality goals.
Guests now enjoy an authentic tropical experience with the comfort and safety of modern materials. The resort’s new look has significantly enhanced its brand image and visitor appeal.
