Product description

Type I

The following membranes are single-ply, non-reinforced, ethylene/propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) roofing membranes available in many thicknesses, widths and lengths:

  • Elevate RubberGard™ Low Slope Fire Retardant (Black)
  • Elevate RubberGard™ LSFR PT
  • Elevate RubberGard™ Platinum
  • Elevate RubberGard™ Platinum PT
  • Elevate FullForce™ EPDM

Elevate RubberGard™ Platinum PT and the Elevate RubberGard™ LSFR PT have a 76.2 mm (3 in.) or 152.4 mm (6 in.) wide QuickSeamTM tape that is factory-laminated continuously along one 30.5 m (100 ft.) length of the panel.

The Elevate FullForce™ EPDM membrane is a self-adhered roof system with Secure Bond Adhesive that is factory-applied to ensure uniform adhesion across the entire membrane.

The following membranes are single-ply, non-reinforced, bi-laminate, white-on-black, cured EPDM roofing membranes:

  • Elevate RubberGard™ EcoWhite™ EPDM
  • Elevate RubberGard™ EcoWhite™ EPDM PT
  • Elevate RubberGard™ EcoWhite™ Platinum™ EPDM
  • Elevate RubberGard™ EcoWhite™ Platinum™ EPDM PT

Elevate RubberGard™ EcoWhite™ EPDM is 1.52 mm (0.060 in.) thick and comes in lengths of 15.24 m (50 ft.) and 30.5 m (100 ft.), and widths of 3.05 m (10 ft.), 5.08 m (16 ft. 8 in.), 6.1 m (20 ft.), 7.6 m (25 ft.) and 9.4 m (30 ft.).

Elevate RubberGard™ EcoWhite™ EPDM PT has a 76 mm (3 in.) wide QuickSeam™ tape that is factory-laminated continuously along one 30.5 m (100 ft.) length of the panel.

Elevate RubberGard™ EcoWhite™ Platinum™ EPDM is 2.29 mm (0.090 in.) thick and comes in lengths of 15.24 m (50 ft.) and 30.5 m (100 ft.), with a width of 3.05 m (10 ft.).

Elevate RubberGard™ EcoWhite™ Platinum™ PT has either a 76 mm (3 in.) or 152.4 mm (6 in.) wide QuickSeam™ tape that is factory-laminated continuously along one 30.5 m (100 ft.) length of the panel.

Type II

Elevate RubberGard™ Max EPDM and Elevate RubberGard™ Max PT membranes are single-ply, reinforced, black, EPDM roofing membranes that are 3.05 m (10 ft.) wide and 30.5 m (100 ft.) long. Elevate RubberGard™ Max is available in thicknesses of 1.14 mm (45 mil), 1.52 mm (60 mil) and 1.91 mm (75 mil), and Elevate RubberGard™ Max PT is only available in a thickness of 1.52 mm (60 mil).

Elevate RubberGard™ Max PT has a 152.4 mm (6 in.) wide QuickSeam™ tape that is factory-laminated continuously along one 30.5 m (100 ft.) length of the panel.

CCMC recognition

The Canadian Construction Materials Centre (CCMC) assesses compliance with Canadian building, energy and safety codes. We are the only construction code compliance service supported and operated by the Government of Canada. Trusted by over 6,000 regulators across Canada.

Most Canadian authorities having jurisdiction (AHJs) consider CCMC product assessments acceptable as evidence for product approval.

CCMC assessments are recognized by construction authorities across Canada:

The CCMC provides code compliance assessments to Canadian code requirements, consulting nationwide with construction regulators to elicit regional variations in code requirements as well as provincial and local interpretations. Users are advised to review the technical information presented in CCMC assessments when making approval decisions. Learn more about how the CCMC provides a unique service for Canada.
