Here are the most popular types of commercial roofing materials:
Thermoplastic Roofing
Thermoplastic roofing system are becoming more popular for commercial properties very rapidly. The thermoplastic material is exceptionally durable, it has a low-temperature flexibility and a high-temperature tolerance, and it’s resistant to ultraviolet and chemical exposure. It can also withstand fire, punctures, and high winds, and it can typically be expected to last for more than 20 years.
EPDM Roofing
Ethylene propylene diene monomer—or EPDM—is a very durable rubber materials that’s not much different than inner-tube material. It’s easy and inexpensive to install. It can be mechanically anchored to your New Jersey commercial property’s roof with fasteners, ballasted with stone, or glued on.
Also referred to as rubber membrane roofing, this material is very lightweight, but it’s also very resistant to damage. However, EPDM roofing is more vulnerable to punctures, and it can also be more expensive upfront than some other roofing materials.
Green Roofs
Green roofs are systems of living plants and vegetation that are installed on the roofs of residential, commercial, and industrial properties. Roofs made of plant systems have been around in different forms for centuries, but modern green roofs are made of a system of manufactured layers deliberately placed over roofs to encourage the growth of vegetation.
