Authentic Roof FR,
by Crow Building Products Ltd.
Located in Ontario, Canada,
Will be bringing into the designs the Worlds First Recycled
Plymer and Rubber roofing slates.
Originally invented by James Crowe and designed to be an
improvement on real slate roofing, the Authentic Roof
2000FR is Underwriters listed. The old world charm of slate
with more durability, without the extreme weight, and with
affordable installation costs, will be capping off the designs
for a 2 bedroom, 2 bath home which the Art Institute of San
Francisco Green Architectural School and staff is
currently underway in designing.
Authentic Roofs are made from Baljen TPO compounds, a
world first. Baljen is an alloy made of Polyethelene,
Polypropylene, and EPDM rubber, blended
homogenenously in a thermal reactor on a molecular level
without binding agents or plasticizers which are harmful to
the environment, molecularly DNA like stranded, not just a
bunch of stuff melted together.
This DNA like material cannot be separated once blended but
additives to increase ultra violet stability, flame rating, and
flex modulus can enhance its performance for other products such as roofing.
Other alloys include: brass, aluminum, and stainless steel.
Standard designed flashing materials can be used, with recommendation
for heavier gauge utilization, painted galvanized, zinc, or
copper.
The only product of its kind on the market made of TPO, with
UV package and anti-oxidants to protect it from the sun’s
ultra violet rays, with a 50 year limited warranty.
Hail resistant, TPO is utilized by car manufacturers worldwide
because of its durability in hot and cold weather, and its
small expansion/contraction ratio. A clean material which is
not polluting to the environment, also extremely recyclable.
