Reflective surfaces can deliver high solar reflectance the ability to reflect the visible infrared and ultraviolet wavelengths of the sun reducing heat transfer to the surface and high thermal emittance the ability to radiate absorbed or non reflected solar energy.
When looking to upgrade your roof system to a white highly reflective membrane or coating make sure to evaluate the existing insulation system.
Standard or dark roofs can reach temperatures of 150 f or more in the summer sun.
Highly reflective white modified bitumen roofing membrane polyglass u s a inc.
With a lower temperature increase of the cooler roof is a reduced heat transferred to the insides.
Our system costs about 50 less than a new tpo edpm or modified roof.
The most well known type of reflective surface is the cool roof.
With this in mind the midwest roofing contractors association mrca and nrca initiated a field study of highly reflective polymer modified bitumen roof membranes in spring 2012 and found highly reflective polymer modified bitumen roof membranes can produce in service reflectivity numbers that appear competitive with single ply roof membranes.
A reflective roof membrane has the capability to reflect the sun s uv and infrared rays away from the building allowing the roof temperature to increase only by 12 o f which is much lower than the 78 o f increase from the traditional black roof.

Reflective surfaces are a form of geoengineering.
A prefabricated asphalt based waterproof roofing membrane for use in a multi ply asphalt based commercial roofing system e g.
A cool roof under the same conditions could stay more than 50 f cooler and save energy and money by using less air conditioning.
A cap sheet that forms the exposed layer of a multi ply built up roofing system is manufactured at a factory to have a highly reflective thermoplastic elastomeric sheet layer with a top surface that has a reflectance that meets current epa energy star requirements.
At the same time improve your energy efficiency with our weatherwrap glossy white membrane that is highly reflective.
Upgrading increasing roof insulation will increase the system r value and increase the overall energy efficiency and cost savings for your building.
Reflective roofing is a commercial industrial roofing company that has tremendous success in extending the life of existing roofs.
