As Solar Roofing Demands Skyrocket, Choose Endureed Thatch Beneath Your Solar Installations

eco-friendly

More people than ever demand solar roofing in the United States. By 2022, the forecast estimates 835,000 squares of solar roofing. By 2037? Projections indicate a whopping 3.4 million squares to top American roofs. This is according to the Freedonia Group market research. People choose green these days. We can’t say we blame them. Endureed thatch roofing is by and far the greenest option for mass production of thatched roofs. People don’t realize it, but even natural thatch roofing costs the environment substantially. Check out our previous blog post explaining how detrimental the commercial use of thatched roofing has been environmentally. Also, learn about the decline of water reed as a result of commercialized natural thatch.

Solar panels on thatched roofs generally sounds like a bad idea, right? Well, it’s risky when it’s natural thatch. Yet, our synthetic thatch offers no issues with solar panels. They’ll outlive your panels and offer the durability you’ll require whether you’re installing solar panels on a thatched roof resort or a thatched roof home.

Synthetic Thatch and Solar Roofing

The waterproofing underlayment beneath synthetic thatch seals around the screws used to install the panels just as it seals around the nails used to install the synthetic thatching. So, Endureed roofing systems has every advantage over natural thatch. Also, Endureed products keep their color even with UV exposure. So, even if the panels are uninstalled or relocated, there won’t be obvious color differences left behind. Our thatch doesn’t rot. Our thatch doesn’t let in pests. See, none of the reasons that people avoid solar roofing on natural thatched roofs applies to our synthetic thatch.
