Elevate Celebrates the 25th Anniversary of UltraPly™ TPO Formulation

Para servir a sus comunidades, los edificios comerciales deben estar diseñados para soportar condiciones extremas y resistir el paso del tiempo. Las soluciones de techos comerciales de Elevate garantizan que esto suceda. Son la definición de duraderos, capaces de soportar el desgaste, la presión o los daños, y de la última década tras década. 

In 2021, we celebrate a formulation that hasn't changed for a quarter of a century — Elevate UltraPly™ TPO. Our trademark Thermoplastic polyolefin roofing system, UltraPly™ TPO, has maintained an unchanged and high-quality formulation for 25 years. Since the Elevate formulation was first installed in 1996 in Las Vegas, Nevada, it's continued to deliver performance, instill confidence, and provide exceptional value with each job. Even the original Las Vegas installation has stood the test of time — and Las Vegas is a place of extremes with temperatures fluctuating between 30°F to 120°F!  It's also one of the top cities in the world for UV radiation exposure, making it one of the harshest environments. 

"We are proud of our UltraPly TPO formulation that has been a constant, providing confidence to our customers. And, our UltraPly TPO formulation continues to be the foundation for innovative TPO product development including SA and additional products that are coming to market soon," said David Martiny, Director of Product Marketing at Elevate. 

To date, more than 5 billion square feet of Elevate TPO has been manufactured globally. Learn why contractors, architects, building owners, and facility managers continue to seek out UltraPly™ TPO for unparalleled building envelope performance.

There's a Elevate UltraPly™ TPO roofing solution for many low-slope applications and building types. How can Elevate cover you?

UltraPly™ TPO SA

Get on and off the roof faster with UltraPly™ TPO SA. UltraPly™ TPO SA with Secure Bond Technology is a revolutionary self-adhering membrane with a uniformly factory-applied pressure-sensitive adhesive. Secure Bond Technology ensures uniform adhesion across the membrane to create one of the most powerful bonds possible. But it also improves installation speed over traditional adhered applications and significantly widens the application window. UltraPly™ TPO SA can be installed in temperatures as low as 20°F / -7°C. And since there's no need for primers or adhesives on horizontal substrates, there's no VOCs. Crews stay safer, and business operations can continue uninterrupted.

Adherido a UltraPly™ TPO Flex

Meet the most flexible TPO on the market, UltraPly™ TPO Flex Adhered. Tricky roof corners and angles have met their match. UltraPly™ TPO Flex Adhered is perfect for complex roof systems in colder climates. It maintains its flexibility even in low temperatures and is designed to be easier for installers to find weld settings that achieve reliable results. More flexibility doesn't mean more vulnerability, though. UltraPly™ TPO Flex Adhered comes with all the same great benefits of TPO, including energy efficiency, puncture resistance, hail resistance, and long-lasting performance.

UltraPly™ TPO XR

UltraPly™ TPO XR takes puncture resistance to a new level. Elevate UltraPly™ TPO XR combines two proven technologies in one. It incorporates the durability of a single-ply membrane with non-woven polyester backing for remarkable reinforcement and puncture resistance. The thick polyester fleece backing makes UltraPly™ TPO XR perfect for a variety of new or re-roofing situations as it can be installed in hot asphalt or over old asphalt roofs. 

UltraPly™ TPO Platinum

UltraPly™ TPO Platinum paves the way for long-term value. This Elevate thermoplastic membrane is made of durable, 80-mil-thick scrim-reinforced membrane for superior puncture, tear, and abrasion resistance. It comes with a 30-year warranty, depending on eligibility. The UltraPly™ TPO Platinum membrane also offers a fleece-backed option for increased durability in strong winds and hail.

Coming Soon - UltraPly™ TPO Flex SA

The latest Elevate roofing advancement is yet to come! UltraPly™ TPO Flex SA will combine the most flexible TPO on the market along with Elevate's Secure Bond Technology, positioning UltraPly TPO Flex SA as the next generation Self Adhered TPO membrane. ¿El resultado? A membrane that really can help you do more with less — less time and resources.
