HD polyiso cover boards enhance roof durability, thermal performance, increase installation efficiency, are lighter than gypsum and improve moisture resistance — all while reducing labor and streamlining roof assembly.
PIMA’s Q4 2024 Reroofing Market Index shows steady demand but rising costs and supply chain issues. With slowing growth, regional disparities, and softening inquiries, contractors face a cautious 2025.
Polyiso roof insulation boards offer energy efficiency and versatility for commercial roofing; different thicknesses cater to various needs and codes, and multi-layered installation is key for performance and stability.
According to Justin Koscher, president of the Polyisocyanurate Insulation Manufacturers Association (PIMA), rooftops are crucial for energy efficiency and can benefit from polyisocyanurate insulation, highlighting opportunities for roofing contractors to improve building performance.
Roof replacements on commercial buildings will become a valuable compliance option as building performance requirements and other new policies are adopted to achieve energy savings.
PIMA recently published new and updated technical and performance bulletins that help increase the building industry’s understanding of polyiso insulation, its applications and its benefits.
PIMA's expanded program now includes third-party verification of thermal resistance values (R-values) for full thickness products independently selected from distribution locations.
A new study shows code-compliant levels of roof insulation installed entirely above deck as part of a roof replacement project can achieve energy reduction goals and cut carbon emissions.
