TPO roofing membranes are currently the fastest growing segment of the U.S. single-ply roofing industry. Green Apple Roofing uses TPO roofing membranes on polypropylene and EP (ethylene-propylene) rubber polymerized together using state-of-the-art polymer manufacturing technology. This technology enables the TPO membranes to be flexible at low temperatures without the use of polymeric or liquid plasticizers.

The result is a roofing material that is both environmentally friendly and extremely durable.
