Thermoplastic olefin, also known as TPO, is avery common flat roofing material that does not degrade under solar UVradiation. White is again the color most commonly used as it offers excellent solar reflectivity.TPO roofs are highly tear resistant and TPO laps are welded together using hot air.TPO Roofing Systems combine the long-term durability rubber provides with the security of hot air welded seams. TPO Roofings tough, tear-resi- stant single-ply membrane resists chemical spills, oil and grease.TPO roof systems are also fully recyclable.TPO roofing is often corisidered a "green option" because no plasti-cizers are included in the formulation.TPO Roofing membranes come in varying thicknesses to meet your specific requirements and are available in varying roll widths.
A TPO roofing system is a good choice if youhave a flat roof or a low-sloped roof. It is energy efficient and long-lasting.TPO roofing systems have all the advantages of EPDM and PVC roofing systems, but without the added cost. TPO roofing systems can be heat-welded just like PVC roofing and are as UV and heat resistant as EPDM roofing.TPO roofs have some drawbacks, as with all roofing systems. They were introduced to the market in the early 1990s. Market research continuesand the flaws in the roofing system are still being sorted out.
TPO stands for Thermoplastic Polefin.TPO robfing systems were introduced to the market in 1990 as an economical and more efficient roofing system than EPDM and PVC.TPO is a single-ply thermoplastic polyolefin membrane made up of three layers. These layers include the TPO polymer base and polyester reinforced fabric center, also known as scrim and the thermoplastic polyolefin compounded topped ply.
The most commonly used fillers in the TPO manufacturing process are fiberglass, talc, and carbon fiber, as well as metal oxy, sulfurate, and wollastonite. EPDM and ethylene-propylene rubber are the most commonly used rupbers in TPO manufacturing.
Durability
This roofng system can withstand the effects of dirt, mold, and debris. TPO roofs are very flexible and can be adjusted as the building or home settles. TPO roofs are more resilient to thermal expansion and contraction of buildings than single-ply roofing systems.
Easy Installation
TPO roofing systems are easy to install. This roofing is lightweight and available in large rolls. This makes it easy to move and requires less welding. The customer benefits from the ease of installation.
Energy Efficiency
Many customers find TPO roofs attractive because they are more energy efficient and have a lower carbon footprint. TPO's white reflective surface surpasses the EPA energy star requirements. The white, tan, and grey surfaces are all listed with the Cool Roof Rating Council. A TPO roof may be the right roof for you if you want to cool your home and reduce vour eneray costs.
1. Excellent mechanical properties and have good flexibilitywithout plasticizer
2. Non-volatile plasticizer means no volatile problem
3. PVC outer plasticizer might change accompany with time and temperature,then result performance degradation andother issues
Longevity
These roofing systems were only introducedin 2005. There is still much research to be done to determine the best chemical formula for TPO roofing. Many manufacturers have had to overcome this challenge. There have been cases of membrane cracking or curling seam failure and membranes bursting. Although newer membranes and formulas have been tried, it is not yet possible to predict hcw long they will last. It is best to choose materials from a company that has been in business for a while when installing a TPO roofing.

1)How to choose suitable waterproof membranes ?
-For exposed places, such as, roof, we suggest TPO /PVC waterproof membrane. Their application method can be welded or glue.
-For unexposed places, such as, kitchen, bathroom...we suggest high polymer PE+non-woven fabric. It can be applied with cement. Tiles can be stick on cement.
2)OEM available ?
-Yes, OEM service is welcomed anytime.
Pls send yourself logo, then we design for you, or you can send us the finished design directly. Then, we print on
the packing round paper or profile paper, or carton outside.
3) Are you factory ?
-Yes, Shandong Chenhua Waterproof co.,ltd. is a professional factory of various of waterproof materials since 1994. Factory is established in China Waterproof Town --Taitou. Our products can meet the different waterproofing demand for both unexposed and exposed substrates.
4)Delivery time
-Normaly, one order will be finished within 10days after order confirmation, the delivery time are different according to different requirements and quantity.
