Thermoplastic Olefin, fondly known in the industry as TPO, is a highly sought-after material for flat roofing, celebrated for its remarkable resistance against the harshness of solar UV radiation. Typically found in a sleek white hue, TPO roofs boast exceptional solar reflectivity, making them a preferred choice for energy efficiency. These roofing systems are renowned for their tear resistance, with laps that are seamlessly welded using hot air for superior strength and durability. The TPO Roofing Systems are a blend of robust rubber durability and the reliable security of hot air welded seams, offering a tough, tear-resistant single-ply membrane that stands resilient against chemical spills, oil, and grease. Adding to its allure, TPO roof systems are entirely recyclable, often embraced as a 'green option' due to their platicizer-free composition. Designed to meet varied specifications, TPO Roofing membranes are available in multiple thicknesses and roll widths to cater to your exact needs.
If you are considering roofing solutions for flat or low-sloped structures, a TPO roofing system could be your optimal choice. Merging energy efficiency with longevity, TPO systems embody the strengths of EPDM and PVC roofs, excluding the extra costs. They offer the flexibility of heat-welded seams like PVC roofing and stand as UV and heat resistant as EPDM solutions. While TPO roofs, like all systems, have certain limitations, they remain a pioneering choice since their inception in the early 1990s. Continuous market research and improvements are underway to refine and perfect this innovative roofing system.
TPO, or Thermoplastic Olefin, revolutionized the market in 1990 by offering an economically efficient alternative to EPDM and PVC roofing systems. This single-ply thermoplastic polyolefin membrane comprises three meticulously crafted layers: a robust TPO polymer base, a polyester-reinforced fabric center, known as scrim, and a top ply of thermoplastic polyolefin compound, ensuring unmatched performance and reliability.
The TPO manufacturing process employs an array of fillers, including fiberglass, talc, carbon fiber, metal oxides, sulfurate, and wollastonite, to enhance its properties. The rubber components frequently used include EPDM and ethylene-propylene rubber, ensuring a sturdy and resilient roofing solution.
Durability
Engineered for endurance, this roofing system stands resilient against the elements such as dirt, mold, and debris. TPO roofs showcase exceptional flexibility, adjusting effortlessly as buildings settle, and offer enhanced resistance to thermal expansions and contractions compared to other single-ply roofing systems.
Easy Installation
With TPO roofing systems, installation is a breeze. Lightweight and supplied in large rolls, this roofing material is easily maneuverable and demands minimal welding efforts, translating into cost-effective and efficient installation, much to the benefit of the customer.
Energy Efficiency
At the forefront of energy-efficient solutions, TPO roofs captivate customers with their reduced carbon footprint. The pristine white reflective surface of TPO roofing surpasses EPA Energy Star requirements, while white, tan, and grey options proudly feature on the Cool Roof Rating Council's list. Choose a TPO roof to optimize home cooling and slash energy expenses.
1. Boasting excellent mechanical properties, TPO membranes maintain superb flexibility without relying on plasticizers.
2. Non-volatile plasticizers ensure consistent performance without concerns about volatility.
3. Over time and temperature fluctuations, PVC's outer plasticizer may alter, possibly leading to performance degradation and other complications.
Longevity
Introduced in 2005, TPO roofing systems are still under extensive research to perfect their chemical formula. The journey hasn't been without challenges, with instances of membrane cracking or seam failures. Although new formulas show promise, the longevity of TPO roofs remains under scrutiny. Opt for materials from a well-established company to ensure reliability and performance when choosing a TPO roofing system.

1) How to choose suitable waterproof membranes?
-For exposed areas like roofs, we recommend TPO or PVC waterproof membranes. These can be applied through welding or adhesive methods for optimal performance and protection.
- For areas that are tucked away from the elements, such as kitchens and bathrooms, we recommend using our premium high polymer PE combined with non-woven fabric. This versatile material is incredibly compatible with cement, allowing for tiles to be effortlessly adhered to the cement surface, ensuring a seamless and durable finish.
2) Can you provide OEM services?
- Absolutely, OEM service is warmly welcomed at any time.
Please provide your logo, and we can design it for you. Alternatively, you may send us your completed design directly. We will then print it on
the packaging, whether on round paper, profile paper, or the exterior of the carton.
3) Are you a factory?
- Indeed, Shandong Chenhua Waterproof Co., Ltd. stands as a distinguished and professional factory specializing in a diverse range of waterproof materials since 1994. Strategically located in China's renowned Waterproof Town, Taitou, our factory fulfills various waterproofing needs for both hidden and exposed surfaces with superior quality.
4) What is the delivery time?
- Typically, once an order is confirmed, it is completed within a span of just 10 days. However, the delivery time may vary, contingent upon specific requirements and order quantities.
