Are there any TPO roofing suppliers in NY?
Thank you.
Can I use TPO below grade like a retaining wall
Could someone please let know which companies I could approach to in order to offer them post-industrial TPO from car interior manufacturers (GM, Tesla, Ford, etc? It can be re-processed and used to produce TPO based roofing products.
I get arouond 60 Ton / month, the material is 75% TPO+foam and 25% TPO only.
I am able to export it anywhere.
Thanks
Hello Daniel,
Can you pease email me at josh@hamiltonpolymers.com about the information about the TPO materials for reprocessing?
Thanks,
Josh kamer
Hi Daniel,
Is this still something you exploring?
Do any of the manufacturers offer more than a ten year warranty for Santa Fe, NM? I know UV is an issue.
@ Roofrunner
Roof warranty depends on membrane thickness – 50 mil = 15 years. 60 mil = 20 years and 80 mil = 25 years. These are typical industry warranties for TPO and PVC membrane.
If you need NDL (no dollar limit) labor warranty from manufacturer, your roof needs to be certified by manufacturer, use all required accessories, and have the roof inspected by manufacturer, to get labor warranty.
NDL typically goes up-to 20 years (for 80 mil).
I never heard that manufacturers limit warranties in specific states, unless it is related to specific state laws.
Especially with TPO, where ALL manufacturers are crying that TPO is not affected by UV… limiting warranty in souther states would be an admission that UV in fact is a problem for TPO … none of them (manufacturers) would do it.
In any case – if you are not sure about TPO – go with a quality PVC roof instead, and you will be a happy camper (assuming installation is done right).
Good luck
I’ve been on every side of the roofing business, including:
• Manufacturing
• Distribution
• Contracting
Fact: EPDM is not installed in California on anything other than motorized mobile homes in the factory.
TPO still comes apart at the seams and the weather doesn’t even get below freezing very often.
PVC – IB has used the same formulation since its origination in Germany many years ago. Brought to
America, with factory mill thicknesses at .48 on a 50 mil line, rendering .48 across the membrane
over 50 years later. No seams apart, no tape (TPO) on the metal clad, and doesn’t disrupt on all the
McDonald’s. Burger Kings, Taco Bell’s. In and out Burgers, Krispy Creme Donuts, in America. Seam tape
was never the norm until TPO came about in roofing. The only retards to actually use TPO in exposed weather
conditions is yours truly. America. Germany and the rest of the roofing innovators only use tpo on below grade
applications. Imagine that.
Would you like to see photographs of EPDM installed in California?
RFQ,
Yes 🙂 … I would like to see pictures of a black roof in California. Please upload to Imgur.com and post links here.
Cheers, Leo
This sounds like a PVC manufacturer who is upset about the complete dominance of TPO in the marketplace. TPO is usually more affordable, longer lasting, and if a seam pops it’s because it wasn’t welded at the right temperature and PVC would have popped too. Anyone welding thermoplastic, whether it is PVC or TPO must use the right temperatures!
The company I work for uses TPO, PVC, EPDM, Metal, Asphalt/BUR and liquid coatings… but we install more TPO than any other membrane and we warranty it for 20 years with our own labor warranty, plus our own material warranty, PLUS a manufacturer’s labor and material warranty. And we install more than a square football field of it every hour, of every day, 360+ days a year. Wouldn’t it be odd that we are the largest roofer, installing the most popular roofing material (by a long shot) and providing long labor warranties? Per your statement above it would seem we’d be out of business already but are gaining ground every year after 51 years in business!
TPO deserves a solid look and PVC deserves consideration as well. There is no perfect roof for all situations but TPO is as close as it gets until you have cooking oils and chemicals being belched up on the roof.
Nope not at all a manufacturer of PVC. My contracting experiences have been mainly PVC, Metal, asphalt. The only issues I’ve ever had are TPO. How is TPO lower priced than PVC? On large jobs 150-200 Sq you’re talking about up front less costs of $1000 for TPO membrane. Then you pay $1000 back when you continually return to the job. If you own a roofing company you know what I’m talking about. Never had an issue with pvc membrane. That’s all I’m saying.
Who makes a TPO or PVC 20′ x 100″ x 50mil. membrane?
Greg Hill
Western Wholesale
Please Let me know the price for Roofing
Could you kindly guide me about who are the manufactures of TPO resin pellets? Who is the dominant one? Best Regards.
Onaya – I have no idea 🙂
What about Firestone Lenny? Big omission….seems this article and subsequent list is biased and not very comprehensive….also missing is GenFlex…. Firestone’s brother.
Do you work for firestone John?
Yes…for the US you missed the boat. Firestone was not listed. And since you listed Versico, you should also include GenFlex which was purchased by Bridgestone America back in 2006.
Forgot a big one: Firestone Building Products: TPO, EPDM, Modified Bitumen, metal, etc, etc…
Can you guide me to EPDM membrane manufacturers who can supply waterproofing membranes of width 9m and higher.
With best regards
Franz
Franz,
I had to break out my conversion calculator – LOL – that’s almost 30 feet (9 m). Evidently you’re not in the US, but all the US manufactures of EPDM (of which there is only 2, maybe 3 Carlisle and Firestone being the ones I am sure of) have various standard widths, ranging from 6 foot to 20′ x 100′ long. That being .060 mil membrane. This being pretty much the standard along with .045 mill membranes from 10 foot to 30 foot. With that said: I am also aware of .045 membrane manufactured by either Carlisle or Firestone, of 40′ x 100′ and 50′ x 100′. Both of which I have handled and used in the past. Being a Carlisle/Versico licensed contractor, I can also tell you that Carlisle advertises the ability to manufacture sheets of membrane up to 50′ x 200′
https://www.carlislesyntec.com/default.aspxI hope that answers your questions (nearly 3 years later – LOL as I just noticed the date of posting)
