Breaking Down the Science: Fresh Roof™ Test Results and What They Mean for Your Shingles

April 30, 2024
A roof with a lot of shingles and a chimney on it.

Introduction:


When it comes to roof rejuvenation, not all products are created equal. That's why we're excited to share the groundbreaking test results from Fresh Roof™, our revolutionary roof rejuvenation treatment. In this blog, we'll dive into the nitty-gritty of the tests and what they mean for the longevity, durability, and overall performance of your shingles.


Flexural Modulus and Stiffness:


Fresh Roof™, composed primarily of emulsified sub-epoxidized soybean oil (SESO), proved its mettle by decreasing the flexural modulus of end-of-life shingles by 61% and stiffness by 85%. This means that treated shingles are more flexible and less prone to cracking, ensuring long-lasting performance and protection for your roof.


Granule Adhesion:


One of the most significant findings from the tests is Fresh Roof™'s dramatic improvement in shingle grit adhesion. Untreated shingles lost a significant portion of their mass in grit adhesion tests, while shingles treated with Fresh Roof™ showed minimal mass loss, indicating superior adhesion and durability.


Tear Strength and Pliability:


Fresh Roof™ not only enhances tear strength but also maintains pliability even in cold temperatures. This means that your roof remains resilient and flexible, even in the harshest weather conditions, reducing the risk of damage and extending its lifespan.


Hail Resistance:


Hail damage is a significant concern for homeowners, but Fresh Roof™'s superior design and performance make it stand out from the competition. While other treatments leave shingles vulnerable to hail damage due to granule loss, Fresh Roof™'s advanced formula minimizes this risk, providing added protection for your roof.


Fire Resistance:


Safety is paramount when it comes to roofing applications, and Fresh Roof™ delivers on all fronts. Independent testing revealed that Fresh Roof™ reduces the spread of fire by nearly 30%, significantly improving fire resistance compared to untreated shingles. This added layer of protection gives homeowners peace of mind knowing that their roofs are safe and secure.


Conclusion:


The test results speak for themselves - Fresh Roof™ is the ultimate solution for protecting and rejuvenating your shingles. With its superior performance in flexural modulus, grit adhesion, tear strength, pliability, hail resistance, and fire resistance, Fresh Roof™ sets the standard for roof rejuvenation treatments. Say goodbye to cracked, brittle shingles and hello to a roof that's built to last with Fresh Roof™. Contact us today to learn more and schedule your treatment. Your roof will thank you
