Benefits of the Duro-Last Roofing System

  • Each section of the Duro-Last material is prefabricated to fit each roof precisely.
    • All projects are pre-engineered, designed, and manufactured to address the specific needs of each roofing application.
    • All of the material is then heat-welded into large sheets ranging in sizes up to 2500 sq ft.
    • By performing 80-85% of membrane seaming in their controlled factory environment, Duro-Last reduces the potential for rooftop installation errors and leaks that can occur from poor installation.
  • Duro-Last produces a complete line of standard and custom prefabricated accessories.
    • The standard accessories include round pipe flashings, two-way vent covers, roof drain liners, termination bars, drip edge, gravel stops/covers, fascia/covers, and two-piece (compression) metal edge systems.
    • The custom accessories include large, round pipe flashings, parapet wall flashings, scuppers and flashings for all types of rectangular roof penetrations such as HVAC units, skylights, and chimneys.


These accessories are prepared at the factory based on the measurements given by the installer (us); therefore the Duro-Last material fits exactly over every vent and penetration on the roof, thus preventing any possible leak or problem. This custom-made fabric goes around the bases of air conditioning units, vents, curbs, flashings are tightly sealed to the Duro-Last material making the roof look nice and professional as well as preventing it from water intrusions. The custom-fabricated stacks and curb flashings eliminate the majority of on-site work from the most critical areas, like roof-penetrations and transitions. Duro-Last's custom flashing resists ponding water and helps prevent roof problems.

Another benefit of Duro-Last is that the white membrane color (Duro-Last comes in different colors, but white is always recommended because of the energy efficiency of the color) has the highest reflectivity of any single-ply membrane roofing system rated by the EPA's Energy Star Roof Products Program®, saving significant energy and money for building owners all over North America. In other words, the white membrane reflects the heat and the light away from the building, thus lowering the temperature of the roof. This also saves money on electricity bills because a cooler roof means the interior stays cooler, which, in turn, means the air conditioner runs less.
