EPDM sheeting is the only rubber roofing
membrane that is extruded. This process enables the production of a
consistent single-ply membrane with a white surface and a black back.
The cohesion of compounds results in a single-ply EPDM sheeting that
is highly puncture resistant, has superior tensile strength and tear
resistance, and is both reflective and refractive to UV rays.
Starting with a compound that is 98% pure, the
extrusion process provides a more even distribution of ingredients
which resists uneven weathering, fading or chalkiness of the installed
roofing system. Additionally, due to its high polymer content, the
membrane passes the ASTM 20 year accelerated aging test with no
discoloration.
EPDM sheeting is offered in a variety of
colors and widths for seamless application both in the factory and
retrofit field installations and comes in large rolls to reduce waste
and handling time. |
