What is EPDM roofing?

EPDM is the abbreviation for four materials that together form synthetic roofing rubber: ethylene, propylene, diene and monomer. Need to renovate, restore or seal a leak on your roof? Then EPDM rubber roofing is just the thing for you. EPDM roofing can be used to cover all flat and gently pitched roofs, for both new builds and the renovation of existing roofs.

An EPDM roof survives any weather

EPDM roofing always offers a ready-made solution. At Aquaplan, you can order made-to-measure EPDM roofing. That way, there are no transitions, and you are assured a seamless and waterproof roof covering. EPDM roofing is installed without a roofing torch, which is ideal for any type of DIYer. Moreover, EPDM roofing can be used on almost any substrate, often without removing the old roofing. You simply glue the EPDM roofing with Roof Glue EPDM. Naturally, you want to be sure that your roof remains waterproof for many years. EPDM roofing is resistant to all weather conditions, including prolonged exposure to UV rays in summer and frost in the winter. EPDM rubber is also flexible, permanently elastic and environmentally friendly. Your EPDM rubber roof is guaranteed to remain in top condition for over 40 years.

Installing an EPDM roof

You can install EPDM on a flat or pitched roof in less than one day:

1. Ensure the substrate is dry and free of dust, dirt, sharp edges, grease, etc. For better adhesion, treat the substrate with Aquaplan's Roof Primer EPDM, Roof Primer SBS or Roofprimer.
2. We deliver your EPDM roof covering in one piece; there is no top or bottom. Unroll the EPDM roofing and unfold it on your roof.
3. Finish roof edges with Aquaplan preformed accessories, such as EPDM Outside Corner and EPDM Rubber Roof Collar. You can use Aquaplan's self-tapping screws with EPDM seal and our EPDM Pressure Roller.
