As a contractor, you know all too well the problems of conventional roofing underlayments. They are prone to tearing and ripping. They are hot and heavy to work with. They are unpredictable when storms come along. They stick to metal roofing and tear with expansion and contraction. The list goes on and on...and it adds up to this: increased costs, worries and liability for you!

Our Underlayment Products:
RoofTopGuard II is the high-tech, high-performance answer to the problems of conventional roofing underlayments. This five-layer polypropylene and polyethylene product has strength, low weight, tear resistance, and long life that absolutely blows away the conventional "old-technology" products. And, while RoofTopGuard II is new technology, the basic components are products that have been proven in the harsh climate of northern Europe for over 20 years.

Unmatched Product Performance
RooftopGuard II outperforms other underlayments. Period. It will not tear and rip in harsh winds, making it an ideal product for installations that will remain exposed to the weather. It is 100% impervious to insects, vermin, rot and fungus, providing long-term benefit for any roofing system. In terms of product testing, our test results speak for themselves. In terms of strength, elongation, UV resistance, watertightness, and water vapor transmission, RoofTopGuard II consistently performs better than the test results that were originally developed to accomodate "old-technology" underlayments.

Unmatched Installer-Friendliness
Let's face it - the installation of roofing underlayment is normally a back-breaking job. RoofTopGuard II's low weight, 60" width, and 10-square roll size change that commpletely. Roofing installers continually insist on RoofTopGuard II to make thier underlayment process go faster and easier, and be more secure. And, with RoofTopGuard II's resistance to tears and punctures, no longer will you have to worry about tears and holes in your underlayment application.

New "Fiber-Grip" Surface
RooftopGuard II features brand new technology in ploymer underlayments - the exclusive "Fiber Grip" surface for slip resistance and roof safety, as shown by independent laboratory testing. When wet, RoofTopGuard II has more friction and slip resistance than standard roofing felt. Other polymer based underlayments don't come anywhere close to this slip resitance.

RoofTopGuard II is the new technology of roofing underlayment. As a professional roofing contractor, you obviously want to provide your customers with with the finest roofing systems possible. You do not use the same roof coverings that were used 50 years ago - so why should you use the same "old technology" roofing underlayment? RoofTopGuard II, in terms of performance and installer-friendliness, truly blows the competition away.
