Abstract:
A hail-resistant roofing membrane includes a flexible waterproof polymeric layer of material, a flexible layer of non-woven fabric joined throughout the area of a first surface thereof to the polymeric layer, and a flexible layer of foam material joined throughout the area of a first surface thereof to a second surface of the layer of non-woven fabric, the layer of foam material being adapted for attachment to a roof surface throughout the area of a second surface of the layer of foam material. The roofing membrane is adapted for attachment to an existing roof structure.A method for making the membrane includes binding the polymeric layer, the non-woven fabric layer, and the layer of foam material together with the fabric layer disposed between the polymeric layer and the foam material.
