Owens Corning Highlights Performance, Fire Safety and the Power of COOL Shingles at Western Roofing Expo 2023

During the Western Roofing Expo, Owens Corning presented roofing products and technologies designed to help roofs withstand challenging conditions.

Residential roofs in America’s western states must perform in a vast range of weather conditions, help defend against fire spread at the wildland urban interface (WUI), and comply with stringent energy regulations in select jurisdictions. During the Western Roofing Expo from September 24-25 at the Paris, Las Vegas, Owens Corning presented roofing products and technologies designed to help roofs withstand these challenging conditions. Following is a preview of products spotlighted at Owens Corning Booth 607:

Self-adhered underlayments

Metal, tile, and solar assemblies are popular roofing options in western states. As a leader in self-adhered underlayment, Owens Corning self-adhered underlayment products offer waterproofing and a high temperature rating that is ideal for solar installs. The self-adhered underlayments on display at the Owens Corning booth are easy to install, help protect against water infiltration and are designed to deliver slip-resistance on the home’s roof for installers. And as wildfires are a risk in every season, Owens Corning underlayments are also Class A rated and have passed rigorous fire testing for residential underlayment materials.

COOL Roof Collection Shingles

Specially designed to reflect the sun’s energy and absorb less heat than standard shingles, Owens Corning® COOL Roof Collection shingles feature a precise mix of solar-reflecting granules to help comply with the Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) requirements for California’s Title 24, Part 6. The curated color portfolio includes a breadth of on-trend colors, including deeper, vibrant hues. COOL Roof Collection shingles are designed to help contractors improve homes’ indoor comfort and help reduce energy costs.

Total Protection Roofing System®

Functioning as much more than a home’s cover, a roof is a system of highly engineered components supported by advanced science and designed to perform under constantly changing conditions. From waterproofing to ventilation to shingles that boost curb appeal, the Owens Corning Total Protection Roofing System® is designed to meet ongoing and emerging roofing needs in the western U.S. and across the nation.
