About RUBBERBOND FLEECEBACKED EPDM

EPDM Rubber Roofing Systems are one of the toughest materials known for resistance to weather wind and sun. It is a rubber roofing system that is designed and proven to outlast conventional flat roofing materials.

• The colour of a dark grey slate looks natural and doesn’t easily show dirt.
• The smooth synthetic rubber finish does not require ballast or chippings that have an annoying habit of blocking gutters and downpipes.
• EPDM does not support moss growth. It not only looks good on day one but also stays looking good even after 30+ years...
• The additional thickness of FleeceBack™ helps to hide the negative of the existing deck or finish.

EPDM easily bends with no stress, to follow the contours of the roof, up stands to walls, check curb edges, sky lights, pipes, terminations into gutters and the like.

EPDM has over 300% flexibility so will easily accommodate building movement.

EPDM rubber roofing repels all moisture and does not suffer with age from cracking or crazing.

EPDM “breathes” allowing vapours to escape, thus preventing blisters.

The first synthetic rubber EPDM roofs were laid in the States by Carlisle™ Syntec in the 1960’S and are still protecting these roofs today.

Well known buildings rely on their EPDM rubber roofing such as Honda factories, Microsoft, Staples, Barclaycard, The Play House Theatre, schools, shopping centres, railway stations, hospitals and hundreds of thousands more commercial and residential properties.

EPDM rubber roofing is not affected by extremes of temperature. Installations are in varied climates - from the glaring sun of the Middle East to the freezing cold of Siberia and Alaska.

EPDM rubber roofing is not degraded by ultra violet or ozone as again witnessed by the many installations in hotter climates such as the Middle East.

EPDM rubber roofing is an extremely ECO friendly material, applied with little energy – Both Government and the International Kyoto Ecology agreement recommend EPDM rubber as Best Value sustainable eco-sound roofing.


WHERE CAN EPDM BE USED?

EPDM rubber roofing is suitable for covering a wide range of flat and pitched roof designs from a residential entrance porch to a complete factory roof.

Residential roof coverings include garages, extentions, dormers and balconies.

Secondary paving or timber decking can be installed above EPDM rubber roofing on balconies.
