4 Reasons to Use EPDM Single-Ply Membranes

EPDM or ethylene propylene diene monomer has been the preferred low-slope choice among experienced commercial roofing contractors for well over 40 years. Its many desirable characteristics have made it a top choice among architects, consultants and contractors.

Here are four compelling reasons to use EPDM single-ply membranes for your commercial roofing:

1. Proven Resistance

Experienced commercial roofing contractors know whether it’s weathering, abrasion or fatigue, EPDM roofing systems have a proven record of dependability. They even provide buildings with an added safety feature because of their inherent ability to resist extreme heat and fire.

2. Superior Flexibility

Low temperatures have a way of compromising roofing systems. With EPDM’s superior flexibility, you won’t have to worry about extreme cold or heat, unlike with other rigid commercial roofing options available on the market today. It has a well-known ability to resist thermal shock.

3. Impeccable Track Record

Local roofing contractors have been using EPDM roofing for decades. In that time, manufacturers have been able to conduct numerous laboratory and field studies to track its performance. You can count on it for superior long-term performance.

4. Top-Notch Protection

Most important among its characteristics is that it’s highly resistant to wind damage, giving your building superb protection from elements. The fact that EPDM roofing systems can be designed to meet various wind uplift criteria makes it an ideal choice for building owners needing to meet stringent local building codes.
