Final Flat Roof uses technology for roofing America; Voted "Top Money Saving Product in 2010"

Final Flat Roof (FFR) owner and inventor Sean Sanborn, a retired military Vet and a member of the elite Special Forces, explains to this exclusive dealer team for the Northeast USA and Canada, how FFR is forever changing the flat roof industry. A member at the FFR Florida Council said, "I have been in the construction business for over 30 years and I have never used anything as good on a flat roof." All agreed in a room full of roofers that the Insulation Performance was so good that after an install at two Port Authorities of NY/NJ building the reported average "energy savings for July/Aug 2011 was 27-33% respectively." That's huge! Roof Surface temps went from 154°F to 86°F right after application; amazing by any standard. A member said, "I have witnessed a 30-45% reduction of surface temperatures on one of our recent installs." The manufacturer warrants that the roof temp will be within 10-15 degrees of the ambient temp. "From the sub-freezing climate of the arctic oil fields to the extreme desert conditions of Kuwait, FFR has performed to the highest standards. FFR is a one part liquid infused Kevlar polymeric membrane roofing system. It can be installed over any existing traditional flat roof, metal roof, walls, and can extend the life of an existing roof from 10 to 20 years. It is used by the Port Authority of NY/NJ and many others. FFR contains three proprietary additives that enable the coating to be installed under water for necessary emergency repair. FFR thermo-resistant barrier performs similar to R19 insulation. The website has a money savings calculator for building managers and owners to get feedback on savings. Tax rebates and refunds are available with the proper forms submitted. FFR has a Kevlar-resin tensile strength of 525,000 psi and a breaking tenacity of 424,000 psi. Hail, falling objects, and wind are not a problem. Standing water will not void the FFR warranty. If needed, After HVAC equipment changes, ducts, vents and other roof penetrations, repairs are easy, strong and water tight. FFR is a great crack/leak repair product that will not shrink and will bond to any clean surface such as wood, metal or roof products. FFR can cure under water if necessary. According to members, "We are an emerging leader in the roofing and esoteric coatings business." Their products offer real quality, energy efficiency and huge savings on repairs and larger savings in preserving the investment made into existing roofs and parapet walls. FFR offers the opportunity to lead the way with technology and common sense in the construction industry. "We are proud to be part of the change now and in the future." Less re-roofing is green, more FFR saves money and energy, that's a real win- win for America and building owners.
