ROSEHILL TPV BENEFITS

Written by ARC Partner Rosehill TPV | April 7, 2022

Brighter for longer

Exposure to UV light causes colored rubber surfaces to fade and discolour. The unrivalled UV resistance of Rosehill TPV® sets it apart from other granules, ensuring surfaces retain their color for longer, outlasting even the best EPDM alternatives. Its unique chemistry and high-quality raw materials ensure surfaces stay brighter and softer for longer, even in the sunniest climates.

Range of 22 colors

Available in 22 vibrant colors, Rosehill TPV® offers both architects and installers endless possibilities for creative design when planning wet pour surfaces.

Designers can create bespoke colors to suit any brief by combining two or more colored rubber granules. From lightening or darkening existing tones to producing brand new colors and dynamic patterns, the only limit is your imagination.

Soft & Flexible

Weather conditions and UV degradation cause EPDM rubber granules to lose their elasticity, making them unable to expand and contract with temperature changes. Surfaces harden and become harsh to the touch, like gravel. Granules become loose. The performance, aesthetics, and safety of surfaces suffer, increasing maintenance costs and the risk of injury.

With its unique formulation, Rosehill TPV® is globally recognized for its long-lasting elasticity, remaining supple to the touch, even after extremes of UV ageing and sunlight.

Non-Toxic

Rosehill TPV® is a non-toxic, non-allergenic product and contains no harmful materials and uses only virgin rubber. It doesn’t leach pollutants into the environment and meets internationally recognized standards.

Better adhesion, less cost

The quality of a rubber surface depends on the adhesion between the rubber granules and the PU binder. Due to its unique chemistry and high-quality coating, Rosehill TPV® has a higher tensile strength than EPDM, delivering long lasting adhesion in a wide range of environments. Plus, as Rosehill TPV® is non-porous, unlike EPDM, it does not absorb PU binder, so less PU binder is needed at installation, generating a considerable cost saving.
