I personally would never recommend epdm for any project. TPO is white and much more durable to foot traffic and weathering than epdm. tpo is molecularly welded using hot air. therefore the seams are about% stronger than epdm. tpo is reinforced with polyester scrim as well. EPDM is a horrible product. Knowing today what we know, why would anyone put a black roof on anyways. Having said that though, epdm comes in white. More expensive though. Also, single ply guy was right about the fire barrier. You may want the roofer to provide the UL assembly he plans on referencing. Typically cafeteria's would need to be Class A roof assemblies. Let me know if you need any help with this.
