Carlisle’s Stormwater Retention System
Stormwater management is a growing concern among building owners, especially in urban environments where many stormwater and sewer systems are outdated and unable to handle heavy rain falls. A Ballasted Stormwater Retention roof system from Carlisle
can retain up to 70% of the water from a 24-hour rain event, offering building owners and developers an economical alternative to costly stormwater collection basins and associated land requirements.

During a heavy, one-inch rainfall, over 6,200 gallons of water would fall onto a 10,000 ft2 roof. Carlisle’s Ballasted Stormwater
Retention System using two layers of moisture retention mat could retain up to 67%, or 4,177 gallons. READ MORE
The FleeceBACK Adhered Roofing System
incorporates Sure-SealŪ (black) or Sure-White™ (white-on-black) non-reinforced EPDM or Sure-Weld reinforced TPO membrane laminated to non-woven polyester fleece-backing.

The membrane is fully adhered to an acceptable insulation or cellular or perlite
lightweight insulating concrete decking with a two-component spray-applied,
low-rise FAST Adhesive. Insulation, if used, can either be adhered to the
substrate with the FAST Adhesive or fastened to the lightweight insulating
concrete with an acceptable insulation fastener and plate. READ MORE

Bothwell-Accurate Becomes a Leader in the Application of NVS Lightweight Insulating Concrete System

Lightweight Insulating Concrete Systems combine the unique properties of lightweight insulating concrete and Insulperm premium expanded polystyrene foam insulation board delivering a design that encapsulates the insulation board in insulating concrete.  This process provides fire protection, prevents air infiltration, and bonds the total insulation system to the substrate.  Unlike rigid board, Siplast Lightweight Insulating Concrete is reroofable, and therefore a truly sustainable insulation solution. 

The NVS mix is a 1:3.5 ratio of Portland cement volume to NVS Concrete Aggregate volume.  NVS is engineered for use over non-venting substrates in new roofing, reroofing and re-cover applications.  Because of its higher compressive and tensile strengths, NVS requires only a 1-inch minimum thickness over the top of the Insulperm Insulation Board.  Please click on the brochures to learn more. Lightweight concrete is most effectively applied between the months of April to November.

REROOFING WITH NVS- click to read or download PDFs

Reroofing comes with its own specific set of problems. Tear-off is extremely disruptive to building occupants. Ponding water is difficult to remove, due to irregularities in the existing substrate. Some tapered roof insulations lose Rvalue over time. Construction and maintenance traffic damage the roof. And, while you are paying to have your original investment hauled off to the city dump, you have to worry about keeping the building watertight. When you think about it, reroofing an occupied facility is a bigger headache than an original roof installation.

You can take reroofing off your mind for a very long time with Siplast’s NVS Lightweight Insulating Concrete Roof Insulation System. READ MORE
