A Proven Choice:

FiberTite was first installed on rooftops in 1979. For the first 10 years of the product’s life, Seaman Corporation offered only a 10-year warranty on the FiberTite product. Thirty years later, we are finding that our earliest roofs are still performing.

Seaman Corporation uses the same core formula today to manufacture the FiberTite membrane as we did back in 1979. With a track record of proven long-life after exposure to the harshest rooftop environments, including blistering UV rays, extreme hot and cold temperatures, oils, greases, and caustic chemicals, we never found a reason to change it.

The FiberTite formula relies on DuPont Elvaloy KEE technology for superior performance attributes and for long-term flexibility. Because the FiberTite membrane remains flexible over time, future rooftop modifications can be made with ease.

Rooftop gardens originated in Europe centuries ago, and while Architect Frank Lloyd Wright experimented with them in the early 1900s, it wasn’t until the 1980s that rooftop gardens became a cost-effective roofing option. Also known as green roofs, these sustainable roof installations have grown to be a popular choice among environmentally conscious roofing specifiers, enriching the visual landscape and providing tremendous benefits to the environment.

Big ideas have long defined who we are and what we do. In fact, our roots date back to 1915 with General Tire, one of the pioneers of polymers and reinforced plastics. Today, GenFlex continues to focus on the future, researching and developing better solutions to combat the elements, and new opportunities to meet the needs of the marketplace. Want proof? Just take a look at some of the significant industry firsts we’re known for:

1981: GenFlex becomes one of the original suppliers of EPDM systems. The company is also the first to market EPDM seam tape.
1996: GenFlex develops the first 12-foot-wide TPO sheet to meet industry code requirements, and it is still the widest sheet available.
2003: GenFlex launches the revolutionary Peel & Stick(TM) system, one of the most significant advancements in roofing in the past decade.
2010: GenFlex introduces FlexWhite EPDM, a white-on-black EPDM membrane that combines the benefits of a highly reflective white-surfaced membrane with the proven application techniques of a flexible EPDM roofing system.

Today, our roofing systems and components provide a high-quality product, easier installations and a complete array of warranties to meet your needs, as they evolve.
