Highly Reflective Roofing Membran

A cap sheet that forms the exposed layer of a multi ply built up.

Highly reflective roofing membran.

Solar reflective shingles and solar reflective roofing membranes can be an important component in a building system designed to reduce overall building energy consumption and the impact the home or building has on the environment. Our system costs about 50 less than a new tpo edpm or modified roof. The high level of solar reflectance has been proven to reduce energy consumption abate urban heat island effects and help slow the formation of smog forming pollutants. At the same time improve your energy efficiency with our weatherwrap glossy white membrane that is highly reflective.

Cool roofs can be made of a highly reflective type of paint a sheet covering or highly reflective tiles or shingles. White highly reflective roof membranes and coatings have been proven to save building owners thousands of dollars annually on their energy costs. A reflective roof membrane has the capability to reflect the sun s uv and infrared rays away from the building allowing the roof temperature to increase only by 12 o f which is much lower than the 78 o f increase from the traditional black roof. Specifically engineered for high reflectivity durability and optimal embedment in the sbs modified bitumen sheet.

Dynaflex cr g is used as a composite reinforced cool roof cap sheet membrane in a variety of multi ply roofing systems. Manufactured with patented cure technology polyfresko g sa provides a long term white roof as part of a multi ply roof system and is part of polyglass kool roof solutions. Polyfresko g sa is a premium highly reflective self adhered app modified bitumen cap sheet with an extremely durable white granular surface. A prefabricated asphalt based waterproof roofing membrane for use in a multi ply asphalt based commercial roofing system e g.

Over the last ten years new information has emerged about reflective roofing. Testing of sopralene sg and elastophene sg membranes enhanced with 3m highly reflective granules has shown an initial solar reflectance rating of 0 65 an aged reflectance of 0 62 a thermal emittance of 0 91 both initially and after aging an initial sri of 80 and an aged sri of 75. A cool roof under the same conditions could stay more than 50 f cooler and save energy and money by using less air conditioning.
