Metal Retrofit Roofing

A Metal Retrofit System involves overlaying an existing metal roof with insulation and a Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO) Membrane. This approach provides a cost-effective, energy-efficient, and durable solution for enhancing the performance and lifespan of an existing metal roof.

The Metal Retrofit System conveniently installs over an existing metal roof, meaning there's no need for costly tear-offs or landfill disposals.

Sure-Weld TPO membranes use advanced polymerization technology that combines the flexibility of ethylene-propylene (EP) rubber with the heat weldability of polypropylene. All Sure-Weld TPO membranes include OctaGuard XT™, a blend of industry-leading weathering ingredients to enable Sure-Weld TPO to stand the test of time. Carlisle’s Sure-Weld and Sure-Weld HS TPO membranes are available in highly reflective white, tan, and gray colors, in both 45-mil and 60-mil thicknesses. 80-mil Sure-Weld Extra is also offered in white, gray, and tan colors.

Energy Efficiency

• Improved Insulation: The addition of insulation reduces heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer, leading to lower energy costs.
• Reflectivity: TPO membranes are highly reflective, especially in white, which reduces the building's cooling load by reflecting sunlight

Enhanced Durability

• Weather Resistance: TPO membranes, such as Carlisle's Sure-Weld, are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, including UV radiation, extreme temperatures, and wind uplift.
• Longevity: The advanced polymerization technology and  OctaGuard XT™ blend in Sure-Weld TPO membranes provide long-lasting performance and resistance to degradation.

Cost-Effectiveness:

• Overlay Installation: The ability to install over an existing roof eliminates the need for tear-off, reducing labor costs and minimizing disruption.
• Reduced Maintenance: The durability and resistance of TPO membranes lower the need for frequent repairs and maintenance.

Environmentally Friendly

• Sustainable Materials: TPO membranes are often recyclable, contributing to sustainability efforts.
• Reduced Waste: By overlaying the existing roof, the system minimizes waste and environmental impact compared to a full roof replacement.
