WHAT IS TPO ROOFING?
Thermoplastic Polyolefin is a single-ply roofing membrane made of synthetics and reinforcing scrim that is used to cover flat roofs. TPO membranes are manufactured in sheets of 10,12 and 20 feet wide ranges. These can be used according to your needs based on your roof size. With proper installation, a single-ply membrane roofing system can last up to 30 years.
