Is EPDM Fire Resistant?

When it comes to our customers, we have no higher regard than for your safety. We believe that when picking the right EPDM solution for your flat roofing project, safety should be a make-or-break decision; with this in mind, we have always strived to provide the best product, ensuring that our EPDM is not only high-quality but safe for our customers.

EPDM Fire Resistance

We are pleased to offer a high-quality product certified and accredited as being highly fire-resistant. Our TRC EPDM fire rating is recognised as BROOF (T4), ensuring that, should the worst happen, the product will actively work to reduce both the spreading of flames and burn duration. 

To achieve this rating our TRC EPDM Membrane needed to pass strict criteria, showing that:

• When exposed to flame, the product burned for a duration of less than 5 minutes.

• The spread of the flames was below 0.38m across the region of burning.

The importance of fire-rated EPDM Membrane

Understanding customer requirements is at the heart of what we do, and whether a DIYer or residential/commercial installer, we want to ensure that our EPDM Membranes play an active role in increasing safety and preventing injury should a fire develop. 

Fire resistance is an important factor for EPDM, as this resistance plays a large role in the prevention of injuries, and the damage encountered by the structure. This is crucial in areas such as garden rooms, where there may be a threat to life. By offering a high-quality and fire-resistant product, we play a role in the protection of our customers and their families.

Given the strict criteria required for a BROOF (T4) fire rating, we are proud to provide fire-rated epdm, mitigating the risk of fire outbreaks and protecting both lives and property.

By providing fire-rated epdm, we are not just offering a safe, high-quality product, we are providing safety and peace of mind should the worst happen. We ensure that, in the event a fire develops, your building is well-protected and that you remain safe.
