Construction and Materials
Tarco offers a range of roofing products designed for durability and performance. The construction of these products typically involves a robust base material reinforced with asphalt and surfaced with mineral granules.
The primary components and materials used in Tarco's roofing products include:
- Base Material: This forms the structural foundation of the roofing. It is often a high-quality felt, which can be either organic (felted cellulosic fibers) or inorganic (typically fiberglass). The base material provides tensile strength and dimensional stability to the roofing membrane.
- Asphalt Saturation and Coating: The base material is saturated and coated with specially formulated asphalt. This asphalt provides waterproofing and flexibility. It acts as a binder, holding the components together and protecting the base from moisture. Weather-resistant asphalt blends are used to ensure longevity under various environmental conditions.
- Mineral Surfacing: The top surface of the roofing product is typically covered with mineral granules. These granules serve multiple crucial functions:
- UV Protection: They reflect solar radiation, protecting the underlying asphalt from degradation caused by ultraviolet rays.
- Fire Resistance: The mineral surfacing contributes to the fire resistance rating of the roofing system.
- Weather Resistance: They enhance the overall durability and resistance to weathering.
- Aesthetics: The granules are available in various colors, contributing to the visual appeal of the roof.
- Backing/Release Film: Some products may feature a backing material or release film on the underside to prevent sticking during storage and application.
The manufacturing process involves saturating the base felt with hot asphalt, followed by coating it with a layer of asphalt, and then embedding the mineral granules into the top coating. This creates a cohesive and weather-resistant roofing membrane designed for roll roofing applications.
