Titan XT™ and StormFighter IR™

TAMKO Building Products LLC

With its new Heritage Proline series, TAMKO brought two laminated asphalt shingles to market earlier this year designed for easier installation and higher performance in extreme weather conditions.

The Titan XT™ and StormFighter IR™ are a combination of roofing technology and innovation driven by the overwhelming response to the need for more durable products in the market. The flagship Titan XT features an expanded Rapid Fire Zone™ nailing zone, AnchorLock™ layer reinforced common bond, Advanced Fusion™ enhanced sealants and UltraMAX Weathering™ top coating.

The same features are available on the StormFighter IR, which also boasts the WindGUARD high-wind warranty, and is classified by UL for compliance. Contractors raved about the potential savings on nails and reduced maintenance calls for shingle blow-offs during product focus groups.

MINERAL DESIGN™

Bitec

Bitec’s Mineral Design™ is a pattern-designed, mineral surfaced modified bitumen waterproofing membrane that provides designers, specifiers and building owners more ability to add colorful designs to their modified bitumen roofs. Bitec’s vast line of color selections includes everything from brick patterns and strip slates to camouflage, and more.

Bitec also offers more customization than ever before for projects with solid designs in 14 beautiful colors. Only the highest quality asphalt and reinforced polyester fabric are used for membranes, and the two are chemically bonded using a process that ensures the strength, flexibility and elasticity needed for long-term protection.

These Mineral Design options ensure that your membrane is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also impermeable to water, flexible in low temperatures, UV resistant, puncture resistant and highly workable.

Garland’s R-Mer Shield

Garland Co.

Garland’s R-Mer Shield is a standing seam structural metal roof system that stands out because of its ability to withstand wind speeds over 200 mph. That’s unrivaled strength, durability and waterproofing protection at a time when climate is increasingly more important in roofing.

It’s specifically designed for standing seam roof systems and company officials say it's built to redefine performance expectations in roofing by providing waterproofing protection for 40 years or more. Installation for contractors is also simpler, reducing time and costs on the jobsite.
