For over 150 years, hot asphalt roof systems or Built Up Roof Systems (BUR) have been used to keep the elements out of buildings with flat and low sloped roofs. BUR Systems use several layers of hot asphalt and a reinforcing material, including a pea gravel sunscreen. This reliable and long lasting roof system, when installed correctly, has the longest service life of any flat roofing system on the market today.
Some BUR Systems have lasted as long as 50 years. To date no one has improved upon the service life expectancy of a BUR flat roof system, until now. The TOUGHROOF flat roofing system is a traditional BUR multi-ply hot asphalt roof system with highly improved materials in its makeup, making it the highest performance roof on the market today.
