Why Commercial Modified Bitumen Roofing?

An excellent choice for flat or low-slope commercial roofing systems. Modified bitumen roofing material is made of a bitumen substance. A mix of asphalt and/or black hydrocarbon, petroleum-based materials, mixed with rubber or plastic modifiers such as atactic polypropylene or styrene butadiene styrene. These modifiers give the bitumen a sturdy, flexible, and durable quality that allows for easier installation and modification. Modified bitumen is an excellent choice for flat or low-slope commercial roofing systems because it is installed by rolls.

Modified Bitumen Roofing Options

Modified bitumen roofing is of two types: Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene (SBS) and Atactic Polypropylene (APP). Each has its own advantages, and an experienced contractor can help you find the right roofing system.

SBS

SBS is elastomeric bitumen and it can stretch which offers improved flexibility and increases its contraction and expansion capabilities.

APP

APP can improve the stability of your roof over time. APP is a plastomeric bitumen that is made flexible with an elastic-plastic. An APP roof covering is more UV-resistant than its SBS counterpart.
