Market Overview
Roofing underlayment serves as a crucial component in roofing construction, acting as a protective barrier between the roof deck and roofing materials. Its primary function is to prevent water infiltration, safeguarding structures against potential damage from leaks and moisture. Roofing underlayment also enhances durability, protects against wind-driven rain and external elements, and contributes to energy efficiency. Common materials for roofing underlayment include asphalt-saturated felt, synthetic options like polyethylene or polypropylene, and rubberized asphalt membranes.
Over time, roofing underlayment has evolved, transitioning from traditional asphalt-saturated felt to synthetic alternatives that offer improved durability and weather resistance. The introduction of self-adhesive membranes has revolutionized installation methods, eliminating the need for fasteners or torches. Energy efficiency has also gained prominence with the use of reflective underlayment and radiant barriers, reducing heat transfer and enhancing energy conservation.
