Is a roof restoration considered to be “sustainable”? Yes, restoration is absolutely sustainable! By completing a roof restoration project, you are adding additional years of the life of the roof and that translates into sustainability. Reflective roof coatings help lower energy consumption and reduce the surrounding air temperatures or heat island effect.

Do you know the differences between TPO and EPDM? Swipe to dive deeper into the two types of commercial roofing! Visit https://becn.com/products/roofing/commercial-roofing to browse commercial roofing.

When it comes to commercial roofing, two of the most popular options are TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) and EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer). Both offer distinct advantages, and the choice between the two often depends on the specific needs and requirements of the project. In this article, we'll delve into the key differences between TPO and EPDM roofing to help you make an informed decision.

1. Durability and Longevity: EPDM roofing is renowned for its exceptional durability, with a lifespan of up to 30 years or more when properly maintained. TPO, on the other hand, has a slightly shorter lifespan, typically ranging from 20 to 25 years. However, advancements in TPO technology have improved its longevity, making it a viable long-term option.

2. Reflectivity and Energy Efficiency: TPO roofing excels in its ability to reflect sunlight, which can lead to significant energy savings for building owners. This makes TPO an excellent choice for buildings located in hot climates. EPDM, while not as reflective, can still provide good insulation properties, contributing to energy efficiency.

3. Installation and Maintenance: TPO roofing is generally easier to install, with fewer seams and a more streamlined application process. EPDM, while slightly more complex to install, can be a more forgiving option, particularly in areas with complex roof shapes or penetrations.

4. Cost Considerations: Due to mechanical fastening as the most frequent attachment method with a TPO roof system, it tends to be more affordable. EPDM is typically fully adhered which is both more costly, but also more durable.


When it comes to choosing between TPO and EPDM roofing, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. The decision should be based on a careful evaluation of your specific project requirements, climate, budget, and long-term goals. By understanding the strengths and weaknesses of each option, you can make an informed choice that will provide your building with reliable and efficient roofing protection for years to come.
