LEED V5
As LEED® v5 shifts from documentation-based certification to measurable building performance, roofing systems are becoming a critical component of sustainable design. Architects and designers are now encouraged to consider roofing strategies earlier in the planning process, with an emphasis on reducing embodied carbon, improving energy efficiency, supporting stormwater management, and enhancing occupant comfort. High-performance roofing assemblies, reflective membranes, insulation, drainage systems, and durable materials all contribute to achieving LEED v5 goals.

ACS EVENTS
Project Spotlight: Sustainable EPDM Roofing in Action
This recent commercial roofing project demonstrates how high-performance roofing and sustainability can go hand in hand. More than 200,000 square feet of existing EPDM roofing was recycled, along with multiple pallets of concrete pavers, helping divert significant material from the landfill and supporting responsible construction practices.
The new roofing system features 60 mil EPDM with pre-applied taped seams, JetBond bonding adhesive, and USG Securock® Roof Board—a durable assembly designed for long-term weather resistance, installation efficiency, and dependable performance.
At ACS, we’re committed to helping contractors and building owners achieve both sustainability goals and long-lasting roofing performance. If you’re planning a reroof project, ask us how our roof recycling program and EPDM roofing solutions can add value to your next installation.
