Mule-Hide Modified Bitumen (Mod Bit) roofing systems deliver proven, reliable protection for low-slope and flat roofs across Rhode Island. With over 40 years of proven field performance and a heritage dating back to 1906, Mule-Hide has built a reputation for manufacturing roofing products that perform in the real world—through heavy rain, intense sun, freezing winters, and everything in between.
Mule-Hide offers both torch-applied APP and self-adhering modified bitumen systems. The APP Torch line—including APP Torch G (granulated), APP Torch S (smooth), and premium variants—provides the classic heat-welded installation that delivers outstanding long-term performance and superior weatherability. For projects requiring a flameless approach, the Self-Adhering line features both SBS and APP cap sheets with proprietary adhesive technology that creates strong, reliable seams without torches or hot asphalt.
Mule-Hide granule surface cap sheets come in 10 popular colors: White, Black, Weatherwood, Buff, Chestnut, Oak, Heather Blend, Grey Slate, Pine Green, and Red Blend. Light-colored surfaces reflect solar heat to help reduce energy costs, while the range of earth tones and blends lets you match your building’s aesthetic. The KoolCap cool roofing option features CURE Technology for enhanced granule retention and UV protection.
