EPDM Roofing
EPDM roofing, or ethylene propylene diene terpolymer roofing, is a single ply rubber membrane made made from ethylene and propylene, which are derived from oil and natural gas. EPDM roofs are a popular choice for low-slope roofs and are used in commercial and residential applications. They are known for their durability, low maintenance requirements, and resistance to weathering, hail, UV radiation, thermal shock, and extreme temperatures. EPDM roofs can also help building owners save money on heating and cooling costs, depending on whether the membrane is dark or light in color.

The greatest test of any construction material is how it performs under actual field conditions. Forty years of empirical experience in field applications has shown EPDM to have the roofing industry’s longest average service life. Characteristics that contribute to this superior overall system performance include:
- Cyclical membrane fatigue resistance
- Proven hail resistance
- High resistance to ozone, weathering and abrasion
- Flexibility in low temperatures
- Superior resistance to extreme heat and fire
- Thermal shock durability
- Ultraviolet radiation resistance

For superior roof protection, Snow Country Roofing offers membrane rubber roofing – an affordable solution with decades of durability that will protect your investment. This strong and reliable option is composed of a thick synthetic rubber or thermoplastic layer laminated to reinforced fabric, making it highly resistant to fire, wind, and UV radiation – ideal for exposed locations. There are two distinct types to choose from – thermoset membranes (EPDM) and thermoplastic membranes (TPO).
- Thermoset membrane (EPDM) roofing is a reliable choice for any weather condition! Crafted from rubber or asphalt, the heat-treated molecules create an extra strong bond that won’t easily break apart – providing maximum protection during high winds and heavy rainfall.
- Thermoplastic membrane (TPO) roofing is the perfect choice for any project requiring reliable waterproof protection. Made with a variety of materials that harden and soften in response to temperature changes, TPM creates strong seams via welding – safeguarding against leaks and providing superior durability.
