Why VinylRoofs.org
TAP THE EXPERTISE OF SINGLE PLY ROOFING AUTHORITIES
Representing all of the leading manufacturers of vinyl roofing systems in North America, the Vinyl Roofing Division of the Chemical Fabrics and Film Association is committed to educating architects, specifiers, building owners and roofing contractors on the attributes of PVC as the preferred material for reflective, durable, single ply roofing systems.

THE PERFORMANCE LEADER
For more than 40 years, durable, light-colored vinyl roofing membranes have cooled and protected buildings in climates around the world. Their long life cycle – and the associated lower energy consumption to both produce the raw material and process it into useful products – is a significant factor in their sustainability as a building product.
