Featuring "The World's Best Roof"...
The
Duro-Last
Prefabricated Single-Ply Roofing System is ideal for virtually any commercial or industrial,
flat or low-sloped application. The highly-reflective white membrane delivers real energy
cost savings for building owners and managers. It is extremely durable and easily installed without
disruption to daily operations. The Duro-Last roofing system is also
seam welded, custom fit, leak-proof, resistant to high winds and virtually maintenance-free.
Rooftop Sustainability
The Duro-Last vinyl roof membrane is a proprietary
thermoplastic formulation consisting of PVC resins,
plasticizers, stabilizers, biocides, flame retardants and
U.V. absorbents. A weft-insertion knitted scrim that is
laminated between two layers of PVC film gives the membrane
its strength and durability. The Duro-Last membrane is
available in white, tan or gray.
Duro-Last has met or exceeded all major fire and wind code
requirements, and regional approvals as necessary throughout
the country. These certifications reinforce Duro-Last's
leadership in providing the consistent, watertight integrity
that building owners expect.
Duro-Last has been approved by Factory Mutual as a
1-60,1-75, 1-90, 1-95, 1-105, 1-135, 1-150, 1-165, 1-195,
1-210, 1-270, 1-435, and 1-495 roofing system. Duro-Last is
also listed by Underwriters Laboratories as a Class A, B, &
C approved material. Evaluation services ICBO and NES have
merged to form ICC-ES, which has evaluated Duro-Last for the
International Building Code (IBC). The Duro-Last roofing
system has been approved by the IBC and by code agency
MIAMI-DADE for use in their respective jurisdictions.
Duro-Last is proud to be a charter partner of the ENERGY
STAR® Roof Products Program. The ENERGY STAR label indicates
to building owners and managers that the Duro-Last white
vinyl roof membrane can save them money on cooling costs due
to its high reflectivity (reflects 88% of the sun's energy).
Duro-Last is also a charter member of the Cool Roof Rating
Council (CRRC) and a member of the United States Green
Building Council (USGBC). Duro-Last participates in all
major technical committees in the roofing industry, plus the
American Society of Testing Materials (ASTM).

Environmental Friendly & Economic
In the commercial roofing industry, reflectivity has been the dominant discussion point for several years, and the Duro-Last® Cool Zone® roofing system has set the standard for single-ply roof reflectivity and the resulting energy savings. Now the term “sustainability” is receiving a lot of attention, and once again, Duro-Last is setting the bar.
But what does sustainability really mean for building owners, facility managers, contractors, architects, and other specifiers? It means that the design, construction, maintenance, life-cycle impact, adaptive re-use, destruction, and recycling of roofing components must help meet the long-term environmental standards demanded by today’s high-performance buildings.
To be considered “sustainable,” a roofing system must meet the Five E’s of high-performance roofing: Energy, Environment, Endurance, Economics, and Engineering. In each of these areas, the Duro-Last Cool Zone roofing system leads the commercial roofing industry. Click on the icons above to learn more about the Five E’s and how the Duro-Last Cool Zone roofing system delivers on the multiple demands of high-performance roofing.
