When it comes to walls in commercial roofing applications, adhering the roofing membrane to an acceptable substrate is imperative to the long term performance of the system. 
 
Georgia-Pacific DensDeck® Prime and DensDeck® StormX Gypsum Roof Boards have been tested in all types of roofing assemblies - TPO, PVC, EPDM and modified bituminous, and are the best solutions for the vertical surfaces in commercial roofing applications.

Is DensGlass Sheathing an acceptable substrate in vertical roof applications?

 While DensGlass® Sheathing board is designed for vertical wall applications, it is not approved in membrane roof systems and will not be warranted by roofing membrane manufacturers. 

Georgia-Pacific further clarifies the use of DensDeck® instead of DensGlass® Sheathing on vertical parapet wall applications in the article, Parapet Walls: When is a Wall a Roof?
