PVC is one of the strongest roofing membranes on the market today. Thermoplastic polyvinyl chloride adheres to reinforced polyester for superior resistance to the toughest conditions. PVC roofing systems are naturally impervious to flames, strong winds, chemicals and other potentially damaging elements. It’s a popular choice for commercial building owners looking for extended roof life at an affordable cost. What are some of the other benefits of PVC?
Strength & Durability
The American Society of Testing and Materials sets breaking strength standards for roofing membranes. PVC far exceeds the minimum breaking strength of 200 pounds per square inch, coming in at 350 pounds per square inch. As a result, PVC roofs are very durable and built to last.
Weather Resistance
Unlike other roofing materials that use adhesive to seal the seams, PVC has heat-welded seams for ultimate moisture resistance. Wet weather conditions, strong winds and debris are no match for the impermeable design of PVC roofing membrane.
Eco-Friendly Options
Did you know vinyl is a fully recyclable building material? In addition to the biodegradable nature of PVC, the membrane is reflective for less energy waste. Particularly beneficial for warm climates, PVC roofing can help decrease air conditioning costs.
