The EPDM (ethylene propylene diene terpolymer) rubber roofing membrane is an appealing choice for local the low-slope commercial roofing customers. EPDM continues to be a top choice not only of commercial roofing customers, but also of architects, roof consultants and contractors for both new construction and replacement roofing projects.
One of the best aspects of EPDM is durability and longevity. The greatest test of any construction material is how it performs under actual field conditions over time and under various different stressors. Decades of empirical experience in field applications has shown EPDM to have the roofing industry's longest average service life. Characteristics that contribute to this superior overall system performance include:
- Cyclical membrane fatigue resistance
- Proven hail resistance
- High resistance to ozone, weathering and abrasion
- Flexibility in low temperatures
- Superior resistance to extreme heat and fire
- Thermal shock durability
- Ultraviolet radiation resistance
EPDM's high resistance to wind damage has also proven to be an increasingly desirable attribute. These roof systems can be designed to meet a variety of wind uplift criteria from Factory Mutual, including 1-60, 1-90, and 1-120 ratings and greater, and the stringent code of our local counties.
