What is TPO Roofing?
TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) is a single-ply roofing membrane that offers excellent durability, energy efficiency, and resistance to UV rays, chemicals, and punctures. It is a popular choice for flat and low-slope roofs on commercial and residential buildings in Staten Island.
TPO roofing membranes are made from a blend of polypropylene and ethylene-propylene rubber, which gives them exceptional flexibility and strength. The material is heat-weldable, meaning seams are fused together using hot air, creating a watertight bond that is stronger than the membrane itself. This makes TPO roofs highly resistant to leaks and wind uplift.
TPO roofing is available in various thicknesses (typically 45, 60, or 80 mils) and colors, with white being the most common due to its reflective properties. The reflective surface helps reduce cooling costs by reflecting sunlight away from the building, making TPO an energy-efficient choice for Staten Island's climate.
