Polyurethane Foam Roofing

Spray polyurethane foam (SPF) roofing provides a dependable, energy efficient roofing system that improves a building’s thermal performance year round. Polyurethane foam roofing is applied as a liquid, which forms a lightweight, durable and seamless monolithic membrane.

nce applied, it expands thirty times its original thickness, filling in cracks and crevices that would otherwise allow air and water to intrude through your buildings commercial roofing. Polyurethane foam roofing is also a potential solution for roofs with standing water.

• SPF is an exceptional insulator, and reduces energy use by sealing the roof against both air and water leaks.
• Polyurethane foam roofing reflects UV heat and radiation, providing a cooler roof, and a cooler environment inside the building during the cooling season, and holding warm air in and keeping cold air out during the winter, for year long savings.
• Installs quickly, and is ideal for uniquely shaped architecture, conforming to almost all shapes and types.
• Polyurethane foam roofing expands and contracts with the roof movement in response to the sun, or its absence.
• Low maintenance requirements.
• Resistant to fire, chemicals, hail and weathering.
• Offers a lifespan of 50 years or longer with minimal maintenance.
• Installation is directly applied to the existing substrate and the product dries in seconds.
