EPDM (ETHYLENE PROPYLENE DIENE TERPOLYMER) ROOFS #EPDM is also fully adhered #SyntheticRubber. A primary difference between an EPDM rubber roof and a TPO #RubberRoof is how the membrane seals are adhered together; EPDM uses seam tape; TPO melts the seams. EPDM is also widely used in low-slope or flat-roof buildings; it is 100% waterproof and highly resistant to severe weather such as high wind and hail storms. This is because EPDM consists of four layers. EPDM typically comes in three thicknesses, 45 mil, 60 mil, and 90 mil. The higher the thickness, the more resistant to damage. Which to choose depends upon an evaluation of the building’s risk to damage. For example, a building near an airport is more likely to suffer damage from flying debris than one near a cornfield; similarly, a building located where there is a history of severe storms might consider opting for a higher thickness. EPDM is available in both white and black surfaces. White reflects heat, black absorbs it. The color choice depends in part upon the look of the building, but also general climate conditions in weighing how best to achieve maximum energy efficiency in handling heating and cooling. This type of commercial roof is also highly cost-effective, relatively fast and easy to install, and easier to repair, and thus less costly to repair, compared to other roofing materials.
