An Underlayment That Won’t Play With Fire

By Polyglass.

Polystick® XFR’s added fire protection can handle the heat.

As more and more wildfires spring up across the country, there is increased demand for roofing products to be fire resistantin order to keep houses and buildings safe. Whether it’sbecause of new building codes or for peace of mind, fire-resistant roofing materials are one way  to deliver added fire protection. Polyglass’s Polystick® XFR is a dual-purpose, fire-resistant and self-adhered waterproofing underlayment that offers unmatched fire resistance.

Utilizing ADESO® dual-compound self-adhered technology, Polystick XFR features an SBS (elastomeric) modified bitumen upper compound and an aggressive self-adhesive compound on the bottom.

A Polystick XFR underlayment provides added fire protection to a building when installed under metal roofing, clay/concrete tiles asphalt shingles, and a variety of other roof coverings. Polyglass’ patent pending Burn-Shield Technology™ provides superior fire resistance and offers a UL Class A fire rating in a single layer instead of a typical solution requiring multiple layers.

This translates to labor and material cost savings which ultimately benefits the building owner and contractor. The building occupants can enjoy the peace of mind knowing that Polystick XFR is providing safety and protection for their possessions.

Polystick XFR features a slip-resistant film surface that can be exposed for up to 180 days. With a temperature resistance of up to 265°F, Polystick XFR is ideally suited for high-temperature roof covering systems such as steel and copper roofing, where fire resistance is required or desired.
