Different Installation Methods

Mechanically Attached
with Fasteners & Plates
Most common attachment method. Fasteners and plates are used to attach the TPO membrane directly to the roof deck.
Adjacent membrane sheets are overlapped and heat-welded to form a strong, watertight seal.
Induction-Welded
with Fasteners & Induction-Welded Plates
TPO membrane is attached with fasteners and induction-welded plates.
Plates are welded to the membrane backside ensuring a strong securement.
Provides more uniform deck loading than standard mechanical systems.
Adhered
with bonding adhesive
