Quik-Melt Asphalt Bricks

Quik-Melt Asphalt Bricks

Since 1994, Mid-States Quik-Melt Asphalt has been helping contractors across the country save time and money, all while providing a safer working environment for their roofers. We package traditional roofing asphalt into a manageable and compact 50lb brick that’s proving to be more than just easy to work with. It’s actually changing the way top contractors view and estimate their built-up roofing (BUR) projects.

Here’s what you can expect when you switch to Quik-Melt.

Safer Work Environment

With Quik-Melt, the entire, lightweight asphalt brick can go directly from the truck to the kettle – without ever being unwrapped. At 350º F, the wrapper completely melts away. Now, the need to chop asphalt is a thing of the past.

Cleaner Kettles

Contractors who use Quik-Melt notice a reduction in kettle maintenance. With Quik-Melt, the actual    asphalt never touches the ground. Just double check the melt-away wrapper for debris, and there will be little or no ground contamination introduced into the kettle. The result: a cleaner, safer kettle with less maintenance and down time.

Faster Job Setup and Takedown

Quik-Melt is packaged to be convenient before and after the job: there’s no packaging to remove that delays you from firing up the kettle on the front end, and there’s no waste to slow down your post-project clean-up. As a bonus, asphalt related dump fees are all but eliminated.

TruLo® Max - Low Odor, Low - Fuming Asphalt

TruLo® Max - Low Odor, Low - Fuming Asphalt

TruLo® Max is the low-odor, low-fuming asphalt that delivers top roofing performance. The patent-pending technology not only neutralizes asphalt odor but also reduces up to 90% of the fumes at the kettle. (NIOSH Study). When compared to leading competitive low-odor asphalts and additives, TruLo® Max asphalt is 55% more effective at reducing odor-causing compounds. That’s because it was developed for use at even the most odor-sensitive sites like schools, restaurants, and hospitals.
