EPD: PVC polyester reinforced single-ply roofing membranes with fleece backing, 135 mil, 3.43 mm, 2.9 kg/m2, FleeceBACK® (Carlisle SynTec Systems, Greenville plant)

Carlisle’s FleeceBACK® PVC polyester reinforced membrane is tough, durable, and versatile, making it ideal for a wide variety of re-roofing and new construction projects. FleeceBACK® PVC polyester reinforced membrane offers exceptional weatherability, flexibility, and toughness due to its polyester reinforcing scrim and polyester fleece backing. The polyester reinforcing scrim provides the sheet with added breaking strength, tear strength and puncture resistance for fully adhered or mechanically attached applications; the fleece backing adds to the puncture- resistance of the membrane and provides a built-in separation layer against rough concrete decks or existing asphaltic-based roofing systems. Years of proven PVC formulation performance helps to ensure the membrane remains pliable and weldable as it ages
