In South Florida’s Broward and Palm Beach Counties, roofs need to do more than protect a space. They have to be weather-tough, energy-smart and able to hold up well through years of harsh conditions.
That’s why Rainbow Roofing Solutions recommends TPO roofing. Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO) single-ply roof membranes are among the fastest growing commercial roofing products on today’s market. White TPO roof systems offer an array of attributes that are well-suited for Florida’s intense heat, including high reflectivity and resistance to damage from the sun’s ultraviolet light. Key advantages include:
Durablity. The TPO chemical formulation has built in inhibitors which protect the surface of the material from the sun’s damaging ultra violet light which is the main cause for a roofs’ premature failure. Roof surface temperature stays cool and constant minimizing expansion and contraction of the material which will contribute to the accelerated aging of a roof membrane.
Energy Efficient. TPO possesses intrinsic energy-efficiency attributes that contribute to its ability to reflect UV light and heat. These properties make lowering utility costs and extending the life of your roof valuable important benefits that keep paying dividends year after year.
Adaptability. TPO Systems are flexible and can be adapted to accommodate a wide range of roofing applications. It’s available in white and several other standard color options – all UV resistant and reflective.
Cost-Attractive Installation. One of the biggest benefits of choosing a TPO roofing system is the economical installation cost. A significant portion of the finished roof assembly is prefabricated and delivered to the jobsite ready to install cutting down significantly on installation cost.
Consistently at the forefront of energy efficient roofing systems built for Florida weather, Rainbow Roofing Solutions excels at TPO installation, delivering the most reliable long-term performance and sustainability. In today’s commercial roofing applications, TPO is the preferred choice within the industry.
