A patent fora new upside-down liquid membrane roofing system has recently been issued to Apache Foam Products.

The patent is only the second issued for an upside-down roof (where the water-proofing membrane is between the deck and the insulation.)

,This allows the rpofer to lay the PlazalProtek over th6 liquid membrane which is applied directlyto the deck of the roof. PlazalProtek withstands exposure to open weather and actinic ravs from the sun. lts stability lets it withstand extremes of thermal cycling.
