RoofersCoffeeShop® Welcomes 3M

3M offers a breath of fresh air to our communities of contractors and property owners. 

RoofersCoffeeShop, the award-winning place where the industry meets for technology, information and everyday business, is pleased to welcome 3M into its community for contractors and home and building owners on its sister site, AskARoofer. 3M is using their innovations to create a world where all communities can be safe, healthy and thriving through increased energy efficiency, reduced greenhouse gas emissions and access to clean air and water. 

Part of 3M’s commitment to sustainability is their application of science to help reduce smog and improve the air we breathe. Reducing air pollution remains critical to public health, that’s why 3M is addressing this environmental challenge with 3M™ Smog-reducing Granules. 

The 3M™ Smog-reducing Granules use the power of the sun to improve air quality. In much the same way that trees filter air by trapping them in their leaves and bark, roofs with these shingles transform smog gases into a plant usable form of nitrogen. By integrating smog-reducing granules into roofs, this technology has essentially ‘planted’ over 900,000 trees that can help clean the air of smog pollutants. A typical size roof with smog-reducing granules has the smog fighting power of two to three trees. 

This timely and innovative invention helps make our environment better, improving the air quality by reducing pollution, which can help communities address their emission reduction efforts.  More than that, though, this smart solution helps the roofing industry take a step forward in combatting climate change. 3M invented the technology that can turn your roof into a smog-fighting surface. 

RoofersCoffeeShop® is proud to welcome 3M!
