Why You Should Pick EcoTorch for Your Home

By Cass Jacoby, RCS Reporter.  

This SBS modified bitumen is better for the environment and your home.  

EcoTorch is the next generation of Torch applied SBS modified bitumen roofing membrane, offering a more durable, dependable and eco-friendly roofing membrane than APP modified bitumen membranes. 

As a homeowner, MBTechnology knows you want the top products for your home. If you are considering using the standard APP, it’s time to consider upgrading to EcoTorch. EcoTorch is the most environmentally conscious roofing material on the market, saving still useful tires from sitting in landfills while using the inherent qualities of the material to better protect your roof. For every two rolls used of EcoTorch, a tire is removed from our landfills. 

EcoTorch outperforms in standard APP torch membranes in many categories: 

• Excellent endlap and metal adhesion 

• Granule embedment 

• More efficient torch-down system uses less heat/propane 

• Low-temperature flexibility 

• Weather resistance  

EcoTorch is a vast improvement while remaining at roughly the same cost of APP torch membranes. Plus, EcoTorch is available in eight shingle blend and solid colors. With these outstanding features, you can expect a high quality product that will result in fewer callbacks to your contractor.
