Euroshield® provides you the design and look of Tile, Shake, and Slate roofing without the high cost or the risk of damage. Euroshield® is also lightweight which makes it ideal for residential and commercial projects, regardless of the type of deck or substrate layers the property has.Euroshield roofing product is made to be tough. For instance, the Vermont Slate HP (solid core) panels can sustain any sized ice balls firing at 183 mph with no damage. They are the first roofing material to hold status as hail-proof.This kind of toughness has granted ALL Euroshield roofing products a Class 4 impact resistance rating – the highest rating available at a minimum, while hail-proof for Vermont Slate HP. Most asphalt shingles’ impact resistance rating is a Class 3, and they are likely to sustain damages during a hailstorm.Unlike wood shakes and asphalt shingles, rubber roofing is nonporous. Euroshield roofing products do not absorb moisture, and they will not rot, peel, crack or break down. They can also withstand extreme temperature fluctuations without incurring damage. Once they are installed correctly, the Euroshield rubber roofing system will last a lifetime. (50 years)
