Color technology used in synthetic roofing tiles from the Tapco Group’s Inspire Roofing Products division deflects the sun’s heat from rooftops, which can keep homes cooler and boost points for LEED certification. The tiles from Inspire’s Aledora Slate, Classic Slate, and Arcella Shake product lines offer the look of natural slate but weigh less and come in 6-, 6½-, 7-, 7½-, and 8-inch sizes, allowing for non-repeating staggered or straight applications. The tiles carry a Class A or Class C fire rating, Class 6 impact rating, and a 50-year limited lifetime warranty.
