For commercial building owners and operators everywhere, protecting your business assets and organization’s bottom line are top priorities.
That’s why it pays to know FiberTite® Roof Systems.
FiberTite Roof Systems have demonstrated more than 40 years of real-world performance, a testament to the product’s durability and unique design, as well as its ability to bring real value to your operations. With excellent resistance to common causes of roof failure—like fire, extreme weather, chemical exposure or puncture—you can trust FiberTite for long-term operational integrity.
FiberTite Roof Systems have shown favorable total cost of ownership (TCO) versus competitive options such as TPO, PVC and EPDM. Recent research conducted by a leading asset management consulting firm* used a combination of historical performance data, warranty information, lab test results and proprietary scoring methods to deliver evidence-based TCO figures for several different roof systems.
FiberTite vs. TPO: A Clear Difference
Research shows that FiberTite outperforms TPO in terms of overall TCO, but also in other critical aspects that can compromise the integrity of your operations, including:
Fire Performance. TPO is a highly combustible polymer, and ASTM E108 testing has shown that TPO membranes are capable of contributing to significant flame spread on its roof systems. As such, TPO can potentially increase the risks and consequences related to rooftop fire.
Membrane Resilience. TPO requires the use of performance additives, and those additives are sacrificial and can be depleted sooner than expected, resulting in premature failure. Plus, the cross-section of TPO membrane has only a single layer of protection, thus one direct path to failure. This design results in limited puncture resistance and could compromise the overall protection of the building.
FiberTite vs. Other Single-Ply Systems
FiberTite also shows lower TCO than PVC and EPDM roof systems.
