What is TPO Roofing?

Thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) single-ply roofing membranes are among the fastest growing commercial roofing products and have gained broad industry acceptance for their many performance and installation advantages. As demand increases for heat-reflective and energy efficient roofing systems, TPO single-ply roofing membranes continue to provide exceptional resistance to ultraviolet, ozone and chemical exposure.

TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) continues to be the fastest growing commercial roofing membrane on the market today, having grown to over 40% of the installed sq ft in the U.S. in the past seven years.

Industry reports show that nearly 1.2 billion square feet of TPO was installed in 2013. Its growth and market acceptance continue to outpace the overall commercial roofing market. TPO is clearly leading the trend to white, reflective, energy efficient, heat welded single ply roofing systems.

Benefits of TPO Roofing Systems

Exceptional building performance starts at the top. Significant reduction in roof’s surface temperature. Greater energy efficiency. More indoor comfort and lower electricity bills. It’s no surprise that thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) roofs are the fastest growing, sustainable commercial roofing products available. And with two decades of TPO experience, Firestone proudly stands behind our family of UltraPly TPO products.
