Crafted for long-term beauty and durability in even the most challenging weather conditions, DaVinci composite products offer builders and roofers cost-effective alternatives to real slate and cedar roofing products.

Product highlights at the booth include:

• DaVinci Province® Slate – The single-width roofing features a 12-inch wide tile with a fixed 8-inch exposure. DaVinci Province Slate tiles evoke a historical nature with authentic natural slate appeal and non-repeating beauty. Each tile has an enhanced backside rib structure and self-aligning ledge for ease and speed of installation.
• DaVinci Multi-Width Slate – For the most authentic-looking slate roof, without the weight or maintenance hassles, DaVinci Multi-Width Slate is the answer. These state-of-the-art tiles create enduring beauty on a home or commercial project.
• The 1/2-inch tiles are available in 12-, 10-, 9-, 7- and 6-inch widths and can be installed at 6-, 7-, 7 1/2- and 8-inch exposures. Installation can be straight or staggered and, as with all DaVinci products, tiles arrive at the job site bundled and pre-sorted by color and size, eliminating sorting and guesswork by installers.
• DaVinci Single-Width Slate – Made of the same long-lasting materials as other DaVinci products, the DaVinci Single-Width Slate tiles are 12 inches wide with a 1/2-inch thickness. Modeled from actual slate for natural, non-repeating beauty, the tiles can be installed in straight or staggered positioning at 6-, 7-, 7 1/2- and 8-inch exposure.
• Inspire® Slate – The thin, quarter-inch profile gives the appearance of a weather-worn slate. The durable tile is 110 mph wind uplift rated and backed by a 50-year Limited Lifetime Warranty. The tiles are available nationwide in 20 colors/color blends with Cool Roof options.
• DaVinci Select Shake® – For the most realistic looking shake tiles imaginable, DaVinci Select Shakes capture the authentic look of real cedar. Taken from natural wood profiles, molds recreate 5/8-inch thick traditional shake profiles with 8- and 10-inch widths. 10-inch pieces have a simulated keyway, giving the look of 4- and 6-inch shakes to create a multi-width appearance. Available in eight natural colors. Unique tile design allows for fast installation.
• DaVinci Multi-Width Shake – Duplicating the profiles of real cedar, DaVinci Multi-Width Shake composite tiles have the advantages of color stability and resistance to fading, rotting, cracking and pests. The 5/8-inch thick tiles are available in 9-, 8-, 7-, 6- and 4-inch widths to create a realistic, natural-looking cedar shake roof. Tiles can be installed at 9- or 10-inch exposure, showcasing the deep grooves and realistic grain patterns that combine to create dramatic shadows and visual richness. Select from nine distinct true-to-nature colors.

All DaVinci Shake profiles come in the Nature Crafted Collection of nature-inspired colors, including Aged Cedar, Black Oak and Mossy Cedar. Each color reflects different progressive aging processes found on real shake shingles. The Nature Crafted Collection captures the look of a moment in time and retains it for decades.
