Product of the Week
The Duro-Last single-ply roofing system is ideal
for any flat or low-sloped application. Since 1978, over a billion
square feet of Duro-Last membrane have been installed on buildings of
all types. The Duro-Last roofing system is:
- Precision fabricated. Every Duro-Last roof is manufactured to exact
size in our controlled factory environment. This eliminates up to 85% of
rooftop installation seaming and ensures an excellent fit, delivering
worry-free, leak-proof, long-term protection.
- Energy-efficient. The Duro-Last white membrane has the highest
retained reflectivity of any single-ply membrane rated by the EPA's
ENERGY STAR® roof products program, saving significant energy and
money for facilities of all types throughout the U.S.
- Durable. The Duro-Last system is resistant to fire, chemicals,
grease, high winds and punctures, and easily accommodates wide
temperature extremes.
- Installed with no disruptions by authorized contractors.
Installation is quiet, fast, and safe, without loud machinery, hazardous
materials, noxious fumes, hot tar, or mess. A new Duro-Last roof often
can be installed over an existing roof without an expensive tear-off.
- Backed by the industry's best warranties. Duro-Last protects
commercial and industrial buildings with a comprehensive 15-year No
Dollar Limit (NDL) warranty that clearly states our coverage of
consequential damages that result from defects in the Duro-Last material
and/or installation workmanship. Duro-Last also has 20-year warranties
available.
