What is TPO Roofing?
TPO, or Thermoplastic Polyolefin, is a type of single-ply roofing membrane that has gained popularity for commercial applications due to its durability and cost-effectiveness. It’s made from a polypropylene and ethylene-propylene rubber blend, resulting in a roofing material highly resistant to ultraviolet light, chemical exposure, and high temperatures. TPO roofing is also highly reflective, which can reduce cooling costs in hot climates.
What are the Benefits of TPO Roofing?
- Cost-Effectiveness: TPO roofing stands out for its competitive cost. It’s an attractive choice for businesses seeking a balance between quality and expense. It delivers many benefits of premium roofing materials but at a lower price.
- Energy Efficiency: The reflective nature of TPO roofs is one of their standout features. The light color surface reflects sunlight rather than absorbing it, which significantly reduces cooling costs during hot summer months. This energy efficiency can translate to considerable savings for businesses.
- Durability and Resistance: TPO roofing is designed to withstand various environmental challenges. Its excellent resistance to UV radiation helps prevent the material from breaking down under continuous sunlight. Furthermore, it is highly resistant to chemical exposure and ozone, enhancing its durability and making it suitable for various industrial environments.
- Flexibility: TPO is a flexible material that can withstand building movement and thermal expansion. This flexibility can prevent cracks and leaks, increasing the longevity of your roof.
- Sustainability: TPO roofs contribute to your sustainability goals in several ways. Their energy-efficient properties reduce your carbon footprint, and TPO roofing is 100% recyclable at the end of its lifespan. This is a significant advantage for businesses seeking to make environmentally conscious choices.
- Easy Maintenance: TPO roofs are also easy to maintain. They resist the build-up of dirt, debris, and bacteria, and they are resistant to mold growth, punctures, and tears.
How Long Does a TPO Roof Last?
On average, a TPO roof has a lifespan of about 15 to 20 years. Several factors, including installation quality, maintenance frequency, and environmental conditions, can influence this. We ensure that our TPO roofs are installed correctly and provide regular maintenance services to help extend your roof’s lifespan.
How is TPO Roofing Installed?
TPO roofing can be installed in three ways: mechanically fastened, fully adhered, or ballasted. The TPO membrane is secured to the roof deck with fasteners in a mechanically fastened system. The TPO membrane is glued to the insulation in a fully adhered system. The membrane is laid loose in a ballasted system, and a layer of gravel or pavers is used to hold it down. The choice of installation method depends on your building’s characteristics and preferences.
Is TPO Roofing Eco-Friendly?
TPO roofing is an environmentally friendly option. The roofing material is 100% recyclable at the end of its lifespan. Its high reflectivity contributes to energy efficiency by reducing the cooling load during hot weather, reducing your building’s carbon footprint. Also, TPO does not contain any toxic or hazardous ingredients, making it a safe choice for your business and the environment.
