FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE<br />
<strong>Tremco</strong> Rolls Out BURmastic <strong>Rock</strong>-<strong>It</strong> System Solution to Meet<br />
California’s New Title 24 Energy Efficiency Standards<br />
<strong>News</strong> <strong>Release</strong><br />
(September 23, 2005) Beachwood, Ohio – <strong>Tremco</strong> Incorporated, a developer and manufacturer of<br />
commercial roofing and weatherproofing products, announces the launch of a new product, the BURmastic®<br />
<strong>Rock</strong>-<strong>It</strong> System ahead of the revised California Title 24 Energy Efficiency Standards that take effect on<br />
October 1, 2005. The BURmastic <strong>Rock</strong>-<strong>It</strong> System is the first and only cold-process, white-gravel, white-<br />
adhesive surfacing system for built up and modified bitumen roofs, and fully complies with the Title 24 energy<br />
standards. The BURmastic <strong>Rock</strong>-<strong>It</strong> System is an immediate solution for building owners and facility managers<br />
to comply with California’s new energy requirements standard for non-residential facilities while providing the<br />
benefits of a gravel roof system. The <strong>Rock</strong>-<strong>It</strong> System can be used on new roofs, retrofit roof projects, and<br />
replacement roofs.<br />
As a white adhesive / white gravel roof system, the advantage of the <strong>Rock</strong>-<strong>It</strong> System is that it combines<br />
the benefits of a cold-applied flood and gravel surfacing, which includes fire resistance and proven durable<br />
protection with the benefits of a cool roof’s highly reflective surface to reduce air conditioning loads and<br />
reduced roof system heating and cooling cycle. The Cool Roof Rating Council recognizes the BURmastic
<strong>Tremco</strong> Incorporated<br />
3735 Green Road • Beachwood, Ohio 44122 • 216-292-5000<br />
<strong>Rock</strong>-<strong>It</strong> System as a ‘cool roof’, which is defined as providing a 70% minimum solar reflectance and a 75%<br />
minimum heat emittance, which meet the revised Title 24 energy code requirements.<br />
<strong>Tremco</strong> also offers a white paper for building owners and facility managers that highlights important<br />
aspects of the new Title 24 energy standards and how these new standards affect residential and non-residential<br />
buildings in the State of California. The white paper can be viewed at the <strong>Tremco</strong> <strong>Roofing</strong> and Building<br />
Maintenance Division’s web site home page, www.tremcoroofing.com, under “What’s New?” or copy and<br />
