Measured result: Roof temperature halved, comfort restored for the occupants
The context
Modular office buildings in La Rochelle, covered with a dark EPDM membrane of 1,500 m²: the heat absorbed by the membrane made the offices hard to occupy in summer. The PrimaTherm® system was applied in four layers after an adhesion test on the EPDM.
The results
Roof temperature halved and comfort restored for the occupants, with the durability of the system (SRI maintained after 4,000 h of accelerated QUV ageing). See the page cool roof on waterproofing membranes for EPDM, bitumen and PVC substrates.
