  Ford logo"...a silicone roof system was selected ...because it promised singular advantages in terms of works life, ease and speed off application, and water resistance.."

When Ford's corporate facilities people approved a new roof for the firm's Latham, NY Tractor Division depot, they did so to solve a long-term problem resulting from long-term deterioration of the original tar-and-gravel built-up roof.

   What they got, in addition to the ultimate solution to that leakage problem, was an energy-saving system that in effect would help pay for the new roof over a period of years.(more)

At the AMF Bowling products plant in Shelby, Ohio, with the help of General Electric Silicone Roofing System and other energy conservation measures, heating costs were reduced in 1977 by almost $24,000.*

AMF's Stan Condon comments, "In 1972, with the built-up roof, we were using 4.12 thousand cubic feet of gas per degree day. In 1977, with our new energy conservation program it has dropped to 1.94 thousand cubic feet."
