CHOOSE THE
NO-BRAINER
MEMBRANE ROOF

Only one membrane roof lasts indefinitely with virtually no required maintenance. The Hydrotech Protected Membrane Roof. Learn how Hydrotech achieves this feat and lets a roof be far more than just the top of a building.

ATTENTION ARCHITECTS
AND BUILDING OWNERS

A properly constructed roof – consisting of the right membrane, installed in the correct location, by authorized installers – can more than double its lifespan.*

This roof is the Hydrotech Protected Membrane Roof (PMR).

*When compared to conventional membrane roofs.

CHOOSE A HYDROTECH ROOF

The roof membrane is what protects your building from water penetration.

The big difference between a Hydrotech roof and a conventional roof is that Hydrotech’s PMR protects the membrane against hazards of Mother Nature and those caused by people.

UNPROTECTED
MEMBRANE ROOFS

Conventional roofs leave the critical roof membrane exposed and therefore vulnerable to damage. As a result, these roofs have a short lifespan (as short as 16 years*) and can require costly repairs.

*According to an independent life cycle study by SmithGroup, available from Hydrotech upon your request.

HYDROTECH PROTECTED
MEMBRANE ROOF

In a Protected Membrane Roof, DuPont™ Styrofoam™ insulation (and any overburden) is placed on top of the membrane. This arrangement eliminates the major causes of membrane damage. As a result, the lifespan of a Hydrotech Protected Membrane Roof now stands at 40+ years, with no end in sight.
