A Correct Roof for every Type of Building
N
O one type of roofing is suitable for all kinds of buildings. A Carey WOOL-FELT built-up roof was chosen for the Commercial Truck plant because most of the surfaces are steeply sloping.
This roofing is elastic and tough and is ideal for a building where heavy manufacturing processes create vibration. It requires no surfacing material. It contains no pitch that would melt or run into the gutters on the hottest days.
The Erie foundry is exposed to sparks, fumes and acid gases. A Carey ASBESTOS-FELT built-up roofing was chosen for this building because in the case of the foundry, the fire and acid resisting considerations outweighed all others.
There is no roofing “cure-all.” No one roof can be the best for every set of conditions.
But among the many specifications in the Carey line you will find the RIGHT ROOF for every type of building.
