Engineered for Airport Environments
Airport roofing systems must perform in demanding environments where operational, environmental, and safety conditions intersect. Beyond weather exposure, airport facilities require roofing systems that can perform reliably under a wide range of conditions.
- Chemical resistance: Withstands exposure to jet fuel, exhaust, deicing chemicals, hydraulic fluids, lubricating oils, and salt common in airport environments.
- Long-term durability: Can withstand severe rain, snow and hail, heavy ice loads, and long-term UV exposure across large surface areas. Designed for a 40-year reference service life, in accordance with ISO 21930, supporting long-term capital planning and facility resiliency goals.
- Wind uplift resistance: FiberTite is a high-wind roofing system designed to resist uplift across large, open-air environments common to airport terminals and hangars.
- Fire resistance: Self-extinguishing membranes help minimize property damage and resist rooftop flame spread.
- Puncture and tear resistance: FiberTite performs under heavy rooftop traffic, equipment loads, and complex penetrations common in airport facilities, making it durable roofing for large-span buildings.
- Drainage performance: Supports effective water management to reduce standing water and related operational risks in airport environments.
- Watertight Reliability: Reduces the need for emergency repairs and ongoing maintenance demands across large, complex airport facilities.
The result is reliable protection that helps reduce the risk of flight delays, terminal disruptions, passenger safety concerns, and costly emergency repairs.
