Aug 27,2025
Shenyu
Synthetic resin roofing sheets have emerged as a next-generation, environmentally friendly building material widely promoted for their lightweight properties, high strength, waterproofing, corrosion resistance, flame retardancy, sound insulation, and thermal efficiency. From industrial parks and residential complexes to agricultural markets, commercial spaces, and historical building renovations, ASA UPVC roofing sheets are becoming the material of choice in modern architecture. But how exactly are these high-performance roofing products made? Join us for an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of SY/Uniko ROOF’s manufacturing process.
Raw Material Selection: The Foundation of Quality
At SY/Uniko ROOF, we believe that exceptional products begin with exceptional materials. The primary components of ASA resin roof tiles are synthetic polymers, specifically PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) and ASA (Acrylonitrile-Styrene-Acrylate) resins. These materials exhibit plastic flow under mechanical stress while offering superior weather resistance, anti-aging properties, and mechanical strength compared to conventional resins.
We use only virgin PVC resin to ensure purity and consistency. In addition, a precisely measured blend of additives is incorporated:
We use only virgin PVC resin to ensure purity and consistency. In addition, a precisely measured blend of additives is incorporated:
- Stabilizers to prevent thermal degradation during processing and usage
- Impact modifiers to enhance durability and shock resistance
- Pigments for uniform, long-lasting color
- Lubricants to improve processing fluency
1. Mixing
Accurately weighed raw materials are fed into a high-speed mixer. This step ensures a homogenous blend, setting the stage for the extrusion process.
2. Co-Extrusion
The mixed material is transferred into an extruder, where it is melted under strictly controlled temperatures. This is one of the most critical stages—using advanced co-extrusion technology, the ASA protective layer and PVC substrate are bonded together in a single step.
SY/Uniko ROOF employs a unique four-layer co-extrusion process:
SY/Uniko ROOF employs a unique four-layer co-extrusion process:
- Top Layer: High-weatherability ASA resin for superior UV and weather resistance
- Intermediate Layer: A specially formulated transitional layer ensuring strong interlayer adhesion
- Base Layer: High-strength PVC providing mechanical support and structural stability
- Bottom Layer: Modified PVC optimizing overall performance
3. Molding and Shaping
The molten composite material is shaped through precision molds and embossed with the desired tile pattern. SY/Uniko ROOF offers a variety of mold designs to produce different styles of ASA synthetic resin roof tile, meeting diverse architectural aesthetics.
4. Cooling and Cutting
Newly formed tiles pass through a cooling system for solidification and are then automatically cut to standard lengths. Computer-controlled systems ensure dimensional accuracy.
5. Quality Inspection
Every batch undergoes rigorous testing, including:
- Dimensional accuracy checks
- Color consistency evaluation
- Impact resistance tests
- Weathering performance assessments
- Fire resistance verification
