EPDM: A Roof System Solution
If you want a roofing solution that has proven performance against tears and leaks, then look not further than EPDM. EPDM stands for Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer and is basically a synthetic rubber used in roofing, mostly on commercial flat roofs. It’s very popular because it’s very easy to install, requiring no special equipment, is very low maintenance, and is excellent at combatting extreme weather conditions.
EPDM roofing applications have been around for over forty years, and have advanced in technology. Newer EPDM installations now consist of the best designs with features that make it much more effective and easy to install to a commercial roof.
Along with improved ease of use, EPDM is much more durable today than ever. The sheets are thicker, which decreases the amount of punctures or tears in the roof material.
EPDM is an excellent commercial roofing choice because it is more resistant to seal problems, easy to install, and with improved technologies it continues to increase its lifespan.
