MBCI's Retro-R^® redefines retrofit

MBCI's Retro-R panels eliminate the roof system removal process entirely by installing directly over an existing R panel roof. As a result, fewer removal and installation accessories are required, saving material and labor costs in the retrofitting process while minimizing the project schedule. This exposed-fastener panel accommodates existing rooftop equipment, vents or light-transmitting panels. Most important, because the existing roof doesn't need to be removed, there's no interruption to business operations. For more information, visit www.mbci.com/retro-r.
