Highly Reflective Roofing Membrane

New highly reflective granule surfaced roof membrane developed through collaboration between 3m and soprema.

Highly reflective roofing membrane.

A reflective roof membrane has the capability to reflect the sun s uv and infrared rays away from the building allowing the roof temperature to increase only by 12 o f which is much lower than the 78 o f increase from the traditional black roof. Featuring gaf proprietary color blends and an enhanced shadow effect timberline hdz rs shingles offer a genuine wood shake look that s sure to please. With a lower temperature increase of the cooler roof is a reduced heat transferred to the insides of the building.

Energy savings through roof restoration. The new 3m ultra reflective granule is integrated into soprema sg surfaced roof membranes to create solutions that provide the solar reflective index sri ratings needed to comprehensively meet. High temperatures and large variations. Over the last ten years new information has emerged about reflective roofing.

Converting from a dark to a mid reflectance roof e g. And now thanks to innovative ecodark granules you can enjoy a highly reflective darker colored roof that meets the cool roof requirements of l a. The high level of solar reflectance has been proven to reduce energy consumption abate urban heat island effects and help slow the formation of smog forming pollutants. Solar reflective shingles and solar reflective roofing membranes can be an important component in a building system designed to reduce overall building energy consumption and the impact the home or building has on the environment.
