Recycled Plastic Shingles Last 3X Longer Than Asphalt

Recycled plastic shingles transform roofing through superior durability, aesthetic appeal, and environmental benefits. They divert up to 1,500 pounds of waste per home, last three times longer than asphalt, reduce energy costs, and support full recyclability. This blend of innovation and savings positions them as a key advancement in the 2025 eco-roofing movement.
