The Look of Standing Seam Metal

Décor takes all of the benefits of a Sarnafil adhered roof system and kicks it up a notch! Décor is the ideal choice for new or existing buildings that want the appearance of a standing seam metal roof, yet require maximum watertight performance.  Décor achieves the appearance of a metal standing seam with a PVC profile rib that is hot-air welded to the membrane surface instead of using adhesive or a peel & stick attachment, permanently fusing the rib to the membrane. 

Below are some of the reasons why a Décor Roof System might be the best fit for your project.

Décor Roof System Benefits:
  • The look of standing seam metal
  • Watertight hot-air welded seams
  • Roof design freedom
  • Proven performance of Sarnafil
  • Less expensive that architectural metal
  • Easier and faster to flash details
  • 7 standard colors
  • 4 energy efficient “cool” colors
  • Almost any custom color
Sarnafil Membrane Sets the Stage

Décor Roof Systems use Sarnafil G 410 thermoplastic PVC membrane, a time-tested product that has proved its ability to withstand weather extremes in all climates around the world. The membrane has an integral fiberglass reinforcement that provides exceptional dimensional stability and a low coefficient of thermal expansion— factors critical to the long term adhesion to the substrate. A felt backing on the membrane helps to achieve a smooth appearance over common roofing substrates.

Décor Rib Profiles

Décor Profiles have the same product formulation as the Sarnafil membrane, ensuring that colors match, both initially and over time. The ribs come in ten-foot sections that are connected on the roof and permanently fused to the Sarnafil membrane using the Sika Sarnamatic hot-air welder. The Sarnamatic is designed specifically to weld Sarnafil membranes, and includes patented kits for Décor Profile installation.

Décor is available in seven standard colors:
Tan, Reflective Grey, Patina Green, Lead Grey, Evergreen, Copper Brown and White (not shown), and almost any custom color to match your design needs.
