Properties

Surfacing minerals safeguard roofing membranes' waterproofing while enhancing the longevity of roof treatments. Their incorporation offers thermal insulation. Depending on the color selection, they can either reflect sunlight to reduce a building’s heat absorption or, conversely, absorb more heat with darker shades.
