Composite roof shingles provide you with asphalt roofing’s traditional look without the shorter lifespan and deterioration of asphalt shingles. These value-for-money roof materials can withstand the toughest hailstorms because of its strengthened materials going beyond asphalt, wood, and polymer roofs.
Hail-resistant composite roof shingles must have a UL 2218 Class IV rating, a standard metric ensuring the roof shingle’s structure can withstand the average hailstone size. High-quality impact-resistant polymers combined with traditional roofing materials achieve a class-IV rating that protects your roof and significantly lowers your insurance premiums.
Composite or synthetic shingles may have high-density polyethylene, polycarbonate, and high-impact styrene. Polyvinyl chloride roofs can achieve the same durability and longevity as other composite shingles but can have poorer impact resistance without added density.
