Carlisle Syntec: Carlisle's Roof Garden System provides a variety of waterproofing options with a full line of accessories to insure a high performance system. This includes a range of membranes such as the 60-mil EPDM and TPO which are ideal for the Ultra Extensive Roof Gardens (shallow) with standard 15-20 year warranties.

Roof gardens 4" to 8" in depth are classified as a Medium Assembly (Extensive) requiring 75-mil EPDM or 72-mil TPO membranes for 10-15 year warranties, and 90-mil EPDM or 80-mil TPO membranes for 20 year warranties.
