Proven Innovation: RapidLock Stands Strong Against Hurricane Fiona
When Hurricane Fiona, a Category 4 storm, tore through Nova Scotia in 2022, Whitney Pier Memorial Middle School faced its second major storm in three years. The school’s roof needed a solution that could withstand extreme weather conditions while minimizing disruption to students.
PMC Roofing Ltd. turned to Carlisle SynTec Systems’ FleeceBACK RapidLock (RL) technology, a revolutionary system offering the strength of a fully adhered roof—without adhesives or odors. This innovative approach not only simplified installation but also provided exceptional wind uplift performance.
The roof was put to the test when Hurricane Fiona’s 140 mph winds swept through. The RapidLock system held strong, proving its durability in real-world extreme conditions. The school board and architects were so impressed with its performance that they specified it again for future roofing phases.
Carlisle’s RapidLock technology isn’t just about innovation—it’s about reliability when it matters most. Learn more about how RapidLock is redefining commercial roofing.
