EPDM
What are EPDM Roofs?
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) is a rubber roof system designed to create a smooth, clean surface on your roof that's both quicker and cheaper to install than a traditional roofing solution like BUR or Modified Bitumen. While the rubber membrane of EPDM roofs come in different thicknesses, EPDM systems generally consist of a layer of insulation, a single ply membrane, flashings and adhesives/fasteners.
EPDM roofs can provide many advantages to your commercial or industrial business, including:
- Seam Reduction: Available in large rolls for fewer seams compared to other single-ply systems.
- Installation Ease: Features a pliable membrane for quick, straightforward installation using adhesives, fasteners, and rollers.
- Proven Track Record: The oldest type of single-ply system, with over 60 years of field use.
- Cost-Effective: Generally less expensive than traditional Built-Up Roofs (BUR).
When choosing a EPDM roof for your business, here are some things to consider:
- Foot Traffic Caution: Walk pads are advised due to EPDM's vulnerability to punctures.
- Aging Roof Maintenance: Routine upkeep is necessary to mend seals and address potential water entry points on older roofs.
