PMC® 500

PMC® 500 is a Utility TPO grade, consisting of post-industrial regrind, typically closed loop. This talc-filled, impact-modified compounded material offers many of the physical property advantages of prime TPO, but at a lower price point. Available in standard weatherable black, and in a variety of textures.
