Product description

GacoFlex S2000 White is a solvent-free, single-component waterproof elastomeric moisture-curing silicone roof coating. S2000 may be used as maintenance coating systems over existing elastomeric roof coatings, metal roofs, built-up roofing, mineral cap sheets, modified bitumen (APP and SBS) and weathered single ply membranes (EPDM, PVC, CSPE, and TPO/CPA) where the membrane is in sound condition but requires a renewal of the membrane surface due to the normal effects of aging and use. S2000 is ideal for use over sprayed-in-place polyurethane foam roofing such as GacoRoofFoam, concrete, plywood decking and on roof surfaces that are used as part of rainwater catchment systems. When properly applied, S2000 provides a seamless weather-tight seal that protects the substrate from degradation caused by ultraviolet light, water and other normal weathering hazards.

Application involves cleaning and preparing the roof surface, then applying the coating using rollers, brushes, or sprayers in one or more layers. Once cured, the coating forms a flexible, weather-resistant membrane that adheres tightly to the substrate.

Interpretation

Based on the results and study assumptions, methods, and data, the cradle-to-gate impacts (A1–A3) for the product represent approximately 50% of the total Global Warming Potential (GWP). The remaining impacts occur in later life-cycle stages.

LCIA results are relative expressions and do not predict impacts on category endpoints, the exceeding of thresholds, safety margins or risks. EPDs are comparable only when they follow the same PCR, functional unit and system boundary. The full EPD (PDF) contains the methodology, scenario assumptions and verification statement.
