Sustainability: Driven by transparency, defined by performance
The Siplast sustainability strategy is built on transparency and high-performance solutions that contribute to sustainable building practices. We provide product-specific Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), backed by comprehensive Life Cycle Assessments to help architects and owners better understand a product's footprint from raw material extract to end of life. Health Product Declarations (HPDs) and Declare Labels transparently share product ingredient information and potential associated health hazards. This documentation, along with other product sustainability documentation offered by Siplast, help architects and owners make informed decisions and meet credit requirements for green building rating systems.
We also transform roofs into active environmental assets. From vegetated roofs and stormwater management systems to neutralizing harmful NOx molecules with granule surfacing and reusable lightweight insulating concrete, partner with Siplast for sustainable building solutions that cover the full enclosure.

NEUTRALIZING NOx WITH GRANULE-SURFACED CAP SHEETS
Eco-Activ™ roof membranes
Of the countless atmospheric pollutants released daily, there's one you can help neutralize—nitrous oxides—by simply choosing the right roof membrane. Nitrous oxides (NOx) are irritating gases that can be harmful to health, help facilitate the formation of low-level ozone, and help increase the greenhouse effect. NOx pollutants are also increasing at a significantly faster pace than its natural degradation, primarily due to transportation and industry. Siplast Eco-Activ™ roof membranes surfaced with Noxite™ granules can help neutralize NOx in the air. Noxite™ granules also can assist NOx degradation by transforming its harmful molecules into a non-hazardous nitrate salt.

Vegetated, amenity, and stormwater systems
Reimagine the roof as an environmental asset. A roof that not only mitigates the impact of weather, but also helps manage it. As a space that protects your building as well as the community around it. Connect with Siplast for integrated vegetative roof amenity and comprehensive stormwater management solutions that help contribute to a number of project sustainability objective.
FEATURED SYSTEMS
Single-source provider. Seamless solutions.
From membranes to customized overburden assemblies, and seamless system integration to comprehensive full-system guarantees, simplify your next project with Siplast. Our broad product and assembly portfolio enables you to specify the right membrane technology for your structure, confident that it will integrate seamlessly with your overburden design vision and sustainability goals.
Full enclosure solutions for a more sustainable footprint
Siplast solutions extend beyond the roof to the full envelope, ensuring that sustainability is built into all sides of the structure. By integrating high-performance wall systems with robust below-grade waterproofing, we help create uninterrupted thermal and moisture protection, as well as continuity of a building’s air barrier system. This continuity is critical to help reduce HVAC loads and help prevent energy loss, and can result in a more energy-efficient building†. By protecting the structure from the bottom up, our solutions help extend the building enclosure’s lifespan and may help improve indoor air quality for its occupants.

Sustainable Roof-to-Wall Transitions
For the building enclosure to be effective it has to be continuous at all of the assembly interfaces across the entire building. The roof-to-wall transition is a pivotal part of the building enclosure.
