Advanced roofing solutions from NCC

National Coatings Corporation (NCC) has announced the release of a Low Rise Roofing Adhesive product line (LRRA) adding to their line of environmentally responsible, energy saving, sustainable roof systems for commercial and industrial buildings.

According to Matt Kolb, President of NCC, roofing screws and fasteners can now be a thing of the past. “Why make holes in a roof only to try to seal them up?” he asks. The rapidly increasing acceptance of low rise roof adhesives is the result of their many benefits. One study cited by NCC even suggests that the labour savings alone can be up to 75 % over the mechanically fastened systems.

Seamless monolithic LRRA eliminates the temperature transmission from mechanical fasteners resulting in greatly improved building efficiency and positively affecting climate change. The National Roofing Contractors Association estimates that up to 18 % of the roof systems R-value can be recovered by using PU adhesive instead of fasteners.

This product has successfully passed a series of severe testing including Underwriter Laboratories UL 1897, Uplift Tests for Roof Covering Systems and FM Approvals Standard 4470 for securing selected roof insulations for various windstorm classifications.
