Why You Should Consider Installing EPDM

EPDM Roofing for Your Commercial Building

EPDM is a super strong rubber used as roofing material for commercial buildings. This roofing type is available in black and white and is one of the most used roofing materials for a low-slope or flat roof in the United States. Outstanding wind, hail, and fire resistance are some of the features that make EPDM roofing a long-term roofing solution. Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) offers other advantages when installed in a commercial building.

Three Benefits of Installing an EPDM Roofing System

1. Environmentally Friendly

The EPDM roof is a single-ply membrane, which means that there is only one layer of roofing material. The fact that rubber takes less energy to produce and comes from recycled materials makes it one of the greenest roofing solutions available in the market. Plus, at the end of its long life, the roof is 100% recyclable.

2. Design Flexibility and Durability

Due to the nature of the EPDM membrane, it is an excellent roofing solution for different applications. The inherent flexibility of rubber allows EPDM roofing systems be fitted on virtually any roof surface. On top of this, an EPDM membrane won’t crack from extreme moisture and dryness as it is extremely resistant to thermal shock and hail damage. Because of these characteristics, EPDM roofing systems tend to last 40 years or longer when installed and maintained correctly.

3. Maintenance Ease

EPDM will require little maintenance if any. This is because the membrane of this material can withstand extreme exposure to UV rays, rain, and freezing temperatures for many years. If you ever notice a leak, repairs are easy, fast, and inexpensive.
