BETHESDA, Md. — The EPDM Roofing Association (ERA) has launched a comprehensive source of research results and analysis on cool, or reflective, roofing. The material is designed to provide a user-friendly and up-to-the-minute reference library to help guide building owners, architects, contractors and specifiers in the choice of the appropriate roofing material for a wide variety of climates. The source can be accessed on the ERA’s website.
“Our goal is to ensure that our current and potential customers have the information they need to choose and use our products successfully,” said John Geary, of Firestone Building Products and chairman of ERA’s Board of Directors. “The science behind the choice of a roofing material is changing rapidly, and it’s not enough to help create the curve of understanding. We want to always stay ahead of the curve.”
