EPDM: A Fully Adhered System and Versatile Applications

eRoof provides fully adhered systems using panels, where the membrane is securely bonded to the insulation. This is achieved through the use of mechanical fasteners, stress plates, and/or adhesives. These systems can utilize either non-reinforced or scrim-reinforced membrane, with non-reinforced membrane being predominant in most installations. Fully adhered systems offer lightweight solutions suitable for various building sizes and geometric configurations, including high-slope applications. Recent technological advancements in application have made fully adhered systems increasingly popular for roof replacement projects across many regions.
