| EPDM Roofing Systems
Durability, design versatility and installation ease are among the many reasons ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) is the most popular material for both new and reroof low-slope roofing applications. Single-ply EPDM roofing systems are based on a high-performance synthetic rubber compound that provides outstanding weathering characteristics in climates worldwide. From office buildings and distribution warehouses to hospitals and schools.
EcoWhite EPDM Roofing System
Utilizing the same characteristics and benefits of Firestone’s established line of EPDM membranes, EcoWhite EPDM membrane offers a highly reflective EPDM solution to coated membranes and thermoplastics. The environmentally friendly white membrane provides building owners with the proven performance of traditional EPDM, while offering the ease of installation roofing contractors need. Available in a .060” (1.52mm) thickness, EcoWhite EPDM membrane is a bi-laminate, white-on-black cured membrane that can be used in conjunction with the comprehensive line of accessories for rapid, consistent and cost-effective fully adhered installations. EcoWhite membrane’s initial solar reflectance is 0.80, when tested in accordance with the Cool Roof Rating Council (CRRC) program. Also, based on recent CRRC testing, EcoWhite has a solar reflectance index (SRI) of 99, making it one of the industry’s most reflective white membranes. Plus, EcoWhite EPDM can help achieve points in the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) rating system, a voluntary national standard established by the U.S. Green Building Council.
