Big news: A new cover board designed to meet the industry’s toughest standards: yours.

When roofing professionals told us they wanted a gypsum cover board that’s easier to handle, stage and install without sacrificing durability, we listened.

Our engineers got to work on DensDeck® ProFast™ Prime Roof Board, a gypsum cover board that streamlines your installation of partially adhered roof systems. It’s approximately 20% lighter than our 1/2″ DensDeck® Prime Roof Board and requires 25% to 75% fewer fasteners and plates.1

Increased Jobsite Efficiency

How do those changes translate into a more efficient roof job? Well, every part specified in your commercial roofing assembly takes time and energy to install. And any type of repetitive motion can drain your crew both physically and mentally.

By decreasing the board’s weight and reducing the number of fasteners and plates needed for installation, your crew can move faster, with fewer strain-related slowdowns.

DensDeck® ProFast™ Prime Roof Board is also a 3/8″ gypsum board. So, compared to our 1/2″ DensDeck® Prime Roof Board, you can fit 25% more boards on a truck. This means you can stage fewer trucks and unload quicker—even before the first cover board is secured.

Performance and Compatibility

If you feel like every commercial roof job is a fight against labor shortages, timelines, and the budget, you’re not alone. And it’s not easy to move faster and cut costs while still delivering a resilient roof. You may be tempted to choose other, less-resilient materials to win the bid. But this could put your roofs at risk of damage.

That’s why, just like the entire Portfolio of DensDeck® Roof Boards, we made sure DensDeck® ProFast™ Prime Roof Board can help your roof system handle repeat foot traffic, unpredictable weather and the threat of fire. It has a compressive strength of 880 psi, so it resists punctures and can support the weight of rooftop equipment.

DensDeck® ProFast™Prime Roof Board also has proven system compatibility, as it’s included in numerous FM-Approved assemblies for wind-uplift performance.

So, in addition to material and labor efficiencies, you get resilience you can trust from the Portfolio of DensDeck® Roof Boards. Find out more about this innovative new cover board at densdeck.com/profast.

1The 25%–75% reduction in fasteners and plates is based on FM approved assemblies using #15 fasteners and 3” metal flat bottom plates.
