Single-Ply Membrane Options
Glick Roofing Systems offers multiple types and styles of single-ply membrane roofing, each with unique advantages for your facility. Our specialists are available to consult with you to identify the most suitable option for your building.
Fluid Applied EPDM
Our fluid applied EPDM is an FM4470 approved membrane, placing it among the highest quality restoration systems available. Key features include:
- Class A fire rating
- 2124% elongation capability
- 1.5″ extreme hail resistance
- Wind uplift rating of Class 1-990
- Proven effectiveness as an air and vapor barrier
This liquid-applied solution weighs significantly less than ballasted roof systems and adheres excellently to most roofing substrates, eliminating the need for costly tear-off and replacement. The result is a more economical roofing solution with reduced environmental impact during installation.
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)
In use for commercial and industrial applications since the 1960s, PVC has a proven track record of superior waterproofing protection. This synthetic plastic uses fewer petroleum products in its composition than either TPO or EPDM alternatives.
PVC offers remarkable resilience, flexing and stretching with thermal expansion and contraction on your roof’s surface. Additional benefits include:
- Exceptional strength
- High resistance to chemicals and environmental contaminants
- Superior leak protection
- UV resistance
- Reflective, cool surface that resists damage and discoloration
- Meets Energy Star and Cool Roof ratings
TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin)
TPO combines polypropylene, known for its elasticity and durability, with ethylene-propylene rubber, a synthetic elastomer. Installation involves rolling TPO sheets over your prepared roofing substrate and securing them to ISO board with mechanical fasteners, with seams taped and heat welded for a secure seal.
Commercial and industrial buildings frequently choose TPO roofing for its:
- Strength and durability (20-30 year lifespan)
- Resistance to grease, dirt, bacteria, UV rays, and chemicals
- Ability to withstand extreme temperatures
- Compatibility with a wide range of roofing substrates
- Energy efficiency due to its reflective outer surface that reduces heat buildup and lowers utility bills
- Reduced cooling load on HVAC systems
