Advancing Asphalt: The FastPack Box From United Asphalts

By Colin Sheehan, RCS Reporter.     

United Asphalts’ most recent packaging innovation is sure to excite all contractors looking to save time on the job.  

United Asphalts has long been known for superior packaging design and for manufacturing high-quality roofing asphalt. Their newest product, ENDURAflex HT, received an innovative packaging system that has simplified the lifting, handling and opening of the ENDURAflex HT product. The FastPack Box launched in February 2021 and is an amazing 50-pound parcel that will improve your jobsite workflow.  

Three of the FastPack Box’s additional benefits are outlined below: 

1 – No chopping  

Loading a kettle has never been easier than now as the packaging does not require messy pre-chopping.  This will also quicken clean-up, improving overall job-site efficiency.  

2 – 100% recyclable  

The FastPack Box was designed to be environmentally friendly. This heavy-duty cardboard packaging allows you to simply recycle the FastPack Box after use. In addition, the package also does not include the typical metal bottom found in traditional packaging systems, which will reduce the amount waste going to landfills.  

This new product and new packaging are in line with United Asphalts increasing attention towards sustainability and the creation of environmentally conscious products. United Asphalts is looking to provide materials for the roofing systems of the future, like vegetative and green sustainable roofs. 

3 – Quick release  

The FastPack box opens in seconds, saving you and your workers crucial time that can now go towards completing projects. Watch this video for a visual on this time-saving component.  

This packaging system makes the already high-preforming ENDURAflex HT that much better. Together, this exceptional product and its packaging raise the bar for built up roofs (BUR). The exceptional SEBS material and the self-healing properties that make up ENDURAflex provide a crucial component to all BUR systems that require a Class IV hail rating.  

Additionally, the FastPack Box is not exclusive to the ENDURAflex product and can be paired with standard Oxidized Roofing Asphalt or any other United Asphalts product by special request.
