“COASTALUME™ is increasingly favored by roofers operating in the toughest coastal environments, providing peace of mind to property owners,” says Brian Veeder, DuPont™ Tedlar® Strategic Accounts Director. “We are thrilled to return to IRE, presenting a truly comprehensive roofing solution from DuPont and to connect with our customers at this premier industry event.”

Tyvek® Protec™ PSU: Premium Underlayment for Residential Roofing

Meeting ASTM and Miami Dade standards, this product is developed to offer peace of mind to installers and owners alike. Tyvek® Protec™ PSU can be used with DuPont™ Tile Bond™ One-Component Roof Tile Adhesive in certain applications to streamline assembly and reduce steps, making for an effective, compliant, and low-waste package. “Residential roofers want solutions that let them install faster without compromising durability.

Styrofoam™ Brand Plazamate™ XR: High-Performance Insulation for PMR, Retrofit, and Green Roof Applications

For low-slope roofing applications, DuPont is featuring Styrofoam™ Brand Plazamate™ XR XPS Insulation. Engineered for superior thermal performance, exceptional moisture resistance, and consistent performance in demanding conditions, Plazamate™ XR delivers up to 34% higher R-value per inch than standard XPS—making it an ideal choice for space-constrained protected membrane roof (PMR) assemblies that must meet increasingly stringent building and energy-code requirements.

“Plazamate™ XR gives designers and roofers the flexibility to achieve high thermal performance without the added bulk or the need for altering existing structures,” said Joe Rofrano, Low-Slope Roofing Industry Manager, DuPont Performance Building Solutions. “With best-in-class R-value (6.7 per inch) and moisture resistance, it’s the ideal solution for retrofit roofs with space constraints or new PMR roof assemblies where high thermal and moisture resistance are critical”
