A Leader In Sustainable Building Technology Relies On Elevate UltraPly? TPO
Elevate Canada | Commercial Roofing Systems
Since 1980, we’ve provided high quality and sustainable roofing solutions for Canada’s commercial and industrial roofs.
What is Earth Rangers?
Earth Rangers is a non-profit Kids' Conservation Organization in Woodbridge, Ontario that educates children about biodiversity, conservation, and sustainability, along with their growing importance in today's society.
The members of the organization spearhead their message by integrating eco-friendly technologies into their own building. Their 16,000 sq. ft. roof uses an Elevate UltraPly? TPO fully adhered system. As a result, the Earth Rangers Center was an early adopter of LEED, and was certified Leed? Gold for New Construction in 2006 and Platinum under LEED for Existing Building: Operations and Maintenance in 2012. The building was even featured in HGTV's 20 of the Greenest Buildings Across Canada.
The Earth Rangers Centre was designed and constructed to be 63% more efficient than Canada’s Model National Energy Code for Buildings, notes the Canada Green Building Council. The facility operates at less than 9 kWh per square foot, using nearly 90% less energy than other buildings of its size.

The Building Performance Solution
The ERC was able to achieve this level of sustainability by installing cutting edge technologies with a state of the art infrastructure throughout the building. In order to safeguard their innovative assets, the Earth Rangers relied on an Elevate system to provide a sustainable, low maintenance, cool roofing solution.
The Earth Rangers required a roofing membrane that was chlorine-free, non-halogenated, plasticizer-free, and an eco-friendly solution that can also be easily recycled. Not only did Elevate UltraPly? TPO meet these conditions, but Holcim's long history of producing quality roofing products, comprehensive warranties, and continued technical support sealed the deal.
According to Andy - a former Director of Earth Rangers, "Holcim has been responsive and supportive whenever I have had a maintenance inquiry or technical questions about roofing changes and mechanical additions. Holcim provided exhaustive documentation on maintenance, supporting us as an owner through the lifecycle of the product and not simply during design and construction."
