GRP or EPDM? It is a question that many roofers have been asking for years. With more and more people moving away from the traditional felt flat roofing types, due to the flame-free options available today, it really has become a competition between EPDM and GRP for which roof reigns supreme. So, if you’ve been wondering which type of flat roofing is best for your project, the flat roofing experts at RAPID ROOFING have broken it down, to show you which flat roofing solution is right for you.
For over 50 years, EPDM has continued to be one of the most frequently used roofing materials on the market. Architects, consultants, and engineers continue to specify EPDM as a high-performance and energy-efficient roofing system. Proven performance in even the toughest weather conditions has made EPDM a dependable and versatile choice.
With built-in UV protection and thermal shock durability, the sun beating down on your business can’t penetrate it. And EPDM is ozone resistant, too. Plus, when the weather becomes frozen, it keeps its flex and even protects your productivity in high winds and hail.
Fibreglass roofs are often referred to as GRP roofs, which stands for Glass Reinforced Plastic, and this solution offers one the most state-of-the-art roofing products available. The material is strengthened through the presence of a resin layer and fine glass fibres, making it highly suitable for flat roofs and other applications.
