PVC roofing is widely used across North America for industrial and commercial buildings; however, many building owners still ask the question: What is PVC roofing membrane, and what benefits does it offer? Understanding what PVC roofing is and why it might be chosen over other materials, such as TPO and EPDM, can help decision makers make a choice which aligns with their performance needs.
Goliath PVC is a polyester-reinforced, thermoplastic PVC waterproofing membrane for single-ply roofing systems. It is compounded with high-quality polyvinyl chloride resin, resilient plasticizers, stabilizers, pigments and other proprietary materials and manufactured in a nominal 50-mil, 60-mil, 80-mil thickness. This PVC membrane is constructed in multiple layers, including a durable bottom film, an anti-wicking polyester scrim, a strong weather resistant film, and an acrylic top finish. Together, these layers contribute to long-term performance, superior resistance to environmental factors, and improve energy efficiency.
Compared to other single-ply roofing systems, PVC offers several advantages, making it a reliable long-term roofing solution for commercial and industrial buildings.
