A lot has changed in the roofing industry since black EPDM single-ply roofing membrane was introduced in the early 1960s; countless products, installation methods, and design practices have come and gone. One thing that hasn’t changed is the general consensus that the best roof is one that doesn’t leak and lasts a long time. That’s why today, more than 60 years since its introduction, many construction professionals are seeing the benefits of black EPDM in a whole new light.
Benefits of black EPDM include:
