ADESO® Dual-Compound Self-Adhered Membranes installs safe, easy and fast, enabling roofers to achieve greater labor and time savings. ADESO® membranes use a true APP or SBS formulation on the top weathering side of a reinforcement and an aggressive self-adhering formulation on the bottom side. Most ADESO® self-adhered membranes feature patented SEALLap® and FASTLap® for the perfect bonding of side and end lap seams.

Polyfresko® is a durable, highly reflective, white cap sheet available for self-adhered and heat-welded applications. Manufactured with CURE Technology®—a thin-film technology applied to Polyfresko®—this product has superior granule adhesion, reflectivity, and UV resistance. Independent laboratory testing confirms Polyfresko® outperforms all major competitors in the granulated “bright white” cap sheet category.

Turbo-Set™ is a two-component, water-based liquid membrane system from Polyglass that uses Blue-Cure Technology™ to speed-up drying and cure time. A revolutionary liquid-applied membrane system, Turbo-Set allows roofing contractors to accelerate roof coating installation time while reducing labor cost.

Polyflash® 1C is a one-component premium flashing compound that can be applied in wet conditions for immediate temporary repair during inclement weather. With high tensile strength and crack-bridging capabilities, Polyflash® 1C seals various roofing and waterproofing details such as walls, curbs, vents, roof drains, pitch pans, and unusually shaped penetrations.

While at the booths, attendees can pick up a VIP pass for Polyglass’ popular Rockstar networking event held Monday, June 10th, 7-10 pm at the Hard Rock Cafe.

Polyglass will also participate in the Davis Memorial Foundation lively-silent auction Sunday, June 9th, 5–7:30 pm. The company is auctioning a NASCAR Getaway Package for four with a signed helmet from NASCAR driver Denny Hamlin to support the scholarship fund.

Polyglass PolyBrite® and PG Elastomeric Roof Coatings Earn ICC-ES Verification

Polyglass U.S.A., Inc., a leading manufacturer of roofing and waterproofing solutions, announces PolyBrite® 70, PolyBrite® 71-HS, PolyBrite® 75, and PG 700 elastomeric roof coating systems meet code requirements according to an independent ICC Evaluation Service Report (ESR-4038). Building officials, architects, contractors, specifiers, designers and others utilize ICC-ES ESRs to provide a basis for using or approving these systems in construction projects under the International Building Code®. PolyBrite and PG elastomeric coating systems are ideal for polyeurthane foam, modified bitumen, plywood, concrete, and most metal roofing substrates.

PolyBrite 70, PolyBrite 71-HS, PolyBrite 75 and Polyglass PG 700 elastomeric roof coatings offer ultraviolet energy resistance and fire protection through their proprietary formulations utilizing 100 percent acrylic resins. These coatings cure to form a seamless fluid-applied roof membrane to extend the useful life of the roof. Each system provides tensile strength and elongation, as well as resistance to fungus, algae, and dirt pickup. These systems can be used for new construction or reroofing.

The ICC-ES approval process requires thorough examination of Polyglass’s product information, test reports, calculations, quality control methods and other factors to verify fire performance, wind resistance and impact resistance of PolyBrite and PG coating systems.

“Our PolyBrite and PG lines of elastomeric coating systems provide durability and energy efficiency in any climate,” says Ariel Lender, Polyglass director of product management and technical services. “The ICC-ES Evaluation Report, along with ENERGY STAR® and Cool Roof Rating Council credentials, confirms that these systems are a reliable option for roofers.”

Polyglass Introduces Velociflex High Wind-Resistant Roofing System

Polyglass U.S.A., Inc., a leading manufacturer of roofing and waterproofing solutions for low- and steep-slope applications, announces the new Velociflex high wind-resistant roof assembly system. Independently tested, the Velociflex system provides for high speed wind protection up to 270 psf (pounds / square foot).

The core of Velociflex is two or three plies of reinforced modified bitumen membranes. Suitable for new or re-roofing projects, this multi-ply system comprises of a mechanically fastened base sheet, optional interply, and a heat-welded or cold-applied cap sheet. Velociflex is ideal for both steel and concrete decks.

The self-venting Velociflex system’s “loose-laid,” mechanically attached base sheet reduces the likelihood of blistering from substrate to membrane. Attached at the seams only, it also limits material and labor costs. Plus, the watertight system acts as a temporary roof once base sheet seams are heat-welded. Fast and efficient to install, the Velociflex system dries in fast, so projects can proceed with phased construction before cap sheet installation.

Installed with a Polyfresko G cap sheet with initial Solar Reflective Index 96, the Velociflex system complies with 2016 Title 24 Part 6 Cool Roof Requirements and is ENERGY STAR® Certified. The Velociflex system is also compatible with a variety of SBS and APP cap sheets from Polyglass, including Elastoflex, Polyflex, and Elastoshield membranes.
