Single-Ply

The three most common types of single-ply membrane systems are TPO, EPDM, and PVC. These have become the fastest growing retrofit commercial roofing products of choice in the last few decades. Their popularity comes from years of product testing, showing them be a stable roofing product to integrate into almost any roofing system. Since they are lightweight, easy to weld, and reflective to high UV sun rays this makes them an ideal choice for retrofits and new roof construction. Then the two most common of the three have become the TPO and The PVC roofing products. While there are arguments on which are  ”better” products They each inherently serve specific roofing needs differently.
