Thermoplastic olefin, or TPO, is esteemed as an elite solution in roofing, particularly for flat systems, due to its exceptional resilience against solar UV radiation. The preferred white hue is renowned for its outstanding solar reflectivity. TPO roofs exhibit remarkable tear resistance, with seams meticulously welded using hot air to ensure unmatched durability and strength. By merging the longevity of rubber with the integrity of hot air-welded seams, TPO Roofing Systems offer a robust, tear-resistant single-ply membrane that stands impervious to chemical spills, oil, and grease. Furthermore, TPO roofs are fully recyclable, often hailed as an eco-friendly option devoid of plasticizers. Custom-designed to meet varied demands, TPO membranes are available in different thicknesses and roll widths, catering precisely to specific needs.
Opting for a TPO roofing system is a strategic move for flat or low-sloped roofs. This energy-efficient and durable choice merges the strengths of both EPDM and PVC systems, yet without the additional expenses. Like PVC roofing, TPO systems are heat-weldable and match the UV and heat resistance of EPDM. However, as with any system, TPO roofing has certain limitations. Since its introduction in the early 1990s, continuous market research efforts have been dedicated to addressing these minor imperfections, persistently enhancing its performance and reliability.
Launched in 1990, TPO, or Thermoplastic Polyolefin, emerged as a cost-effective and efficient alternative to EPDM and PVC roofing systems. This single-ply thermoplastic membrane consists of three expertly engineered layers: a TPO polymer base, a polyester-reinforced fabric core known as scrim, and a thermoplastic polyolefin compounded top ply, guaranteeing optimal performance and long-lasting durability.
The TPO manufacturing process prominently incorporates fillers such as fiberglass, talc, and carbon fiber, along with metal oxides, sulfurate, and wollastonite. The use of common rubbers like EPDM and ethylene-propylene is essential in formulating TPO, supporting its robust structure and performance.
Durability
Expertly designed to resist dirt, mold, and debris, this roofing system offers adaptable flexibility that accommodates building settlement. It provides superior resistance to thermal expansion and contraction when compared to other single-ply systems, ensuring long-lasting performance.
Easy Installation
TPO roofing systems are celebrated for their effortless installation, thanks to their lightweight nature and availability in large rolls, which facilitate movement and minimize welding requirements. This simplicity yields direct benefits for customers, making TPO an appealing roofing solution.
Energy Efficiency
TPO roofs are highly coveted for their outstanding energy efficiency and reduced carbon footprint. The highly reflective white surface exceeds EPA Energy Star standards, while the white, tan, and grey options are recognized by the Cool Roof Rating Council. TPO roofs offer an excellent choice for cooling your home and minimizing energy expenses, supporting an eco-friendly and cost-effective solution.
1. Outstanding mechanical properties with excellent flexibility, ensuring performance stability without the inclusion of plasticizers.
2. The use of non-volatile plasticizers eliminates potential volatility issues, securing consistent performance and reliability.
3. PVC outer plasticizers may degrade over time and temperature fluctuations, potentially leading to performance degradation and concerns over the product's lifespan.
Longevity
Since their introduction in 2005, TPO roofing systems have been extensively researched to refine their chemical formulations. Challenges such as membrane cracking, seam failures, and bursting have been addressed. While innovative formulations are undergoing tests, their long-term durability remains under evaluation. Choosing materials from reputable, well-established companies is recommended for TPO roofing installations to ensure reliability and longevity.

1)How to choose suitable waterproof membranes?
- For exposed areas like roofs, TPO or PVC waterproof membranes are recommended. These can be applied using welding or adhesive methods to ensure optimal protection and durability.
For areas that are not directly exposed, such as kitchens and bathrooms, we highly recommend our premium polymer PE fused with non-woven fabric. This cutting-edge material is designed for easy application with cement, allowing tiles to be seamlessly adhered on top.
