More about Historical: Thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) membrane roofing

Thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) membranes are made up of a block copolymer of polypropylene and ethylene propylene and additives for UV and thermal stabilization. TPO roofing membranes are constructed by sandwiching a woven polyester reinforcing layer, or scrim, with two TPO membrane sheets. Roofing membranes are typically sold in thickness of 45, 60, and 80 mil sheets. TPO roofing membranes may include up to 20% recycled content, depending upon the manufacturer, from post industrial scrap. Roofing membranes are sold in rolls which are applied via mechanical fasteners, site or factory applied adhesives, or loose laid with gravel. Membrane seams are heat welded and edges are sealed using tapes or sealants.
