Quality and Sustainability at Duro-Last Roofing
As the endless green-washing of America continues, the
sustainability/green movement continues to pervade all aspects of our
society. A key element under the umbrella of sustainability is
durability. More and more the expectation of green extends into
product lifecycle and environmental impact.
In the manufacturing environment, functional and effective quality
management systems must be put into place to assure product performance.
The Duro-Last roofing membrane has a 30 year life expectancy. We are
confident in its performance because of the advanced quality systems we
have in place to assure its quality.
Further, advanced quality systems should drive continuous
improvement in manufacturing, product properties and research and
development. Duro-Last has a functionally efficient and ever improving
manufacturing strategy as well as creative and innovative R&D projects
ranging from full recycling capabilities to incorporation of the roofing
membrane into photovoltaic and vegetative roofing systems.
Please join us as we share our Quality consciousness with you at
Duro-Last Roofing.
We look forward to seeing you....
